A woman has shared her ‘freakin easy’ mirror cleaning hack on TikTok and people can’t believe how simple it is – and that they’ve never thought of doing it before
A woman has sparked a cleaning frenzy after sharing her no-sweat method for polishing mirrors.
Cleaning expert Mai Zimmy took to TikTok to demonstrate how to get your mirrors sparkling with nothing more than a flat mop, glass cleaner, and a microfibre cloth. She starts off by removing any items that might hinder the cleaning process from around the mirror and puts them in the sink temporarily.
Next up, Mai generously sprays the entire mirror with glass cleaner to make sure every spot is coated. And then comes her innovative trick: “Then you attach the polishing cloth to the mop – just having it held in by the little holes. It’s fine to have some overhang because that will stay dry for a second pass.”
With the cloth attached, she says: “Then, just like a professional window cleaner you can clean and polish up your mirror glass and it is so freakin’ easy.” The hack clearly works as the video shows the mirror shining brilliantly in no time. Fellow TikTok users, including those with physical limitations, were quick to commend the tip.
A heartfelt comment from one user said: “As someone in a wheelchair- this made it possible for me to truly clean my whole bathroom on my own!”
One person commented: “Can use the swifter and a rag to wash the walls too.” “WHAT?!? I’ve been climbing on the counter for how many years?!?”, another exclaimed in frustration. “My 5ft self thanks you for this tip, I never clean the top half”, chimed in another, accompanied by a crying with laughter emoji.
