Default After cleaning and your mirror is drying...

Anyone ever used a hair dryer on their mirror after cleaning it to dry up the
little bit of excess water stains that remain after rinsing?

I was just thinking of trying this after cleaning my mirror and watching a few
tiny water stains start to develop.

One would think that the hair dryer would just make everything evaporate quite
quickly and easily and voila---no residual water marks (no matter how tiny and
minimal they normally are).


I have for more than forty years used an alcohol rinse for a final
rinse. The alcohol must be quite pure and cannot be reused. Generally,
isopropyl alcohol from a drug store is good enough although I prefer
ethanol with a volatile denaturing agent. This can often be obtained
from a chemical supply house.
