how do i clean hard water spots from glassware?

Answer 1

Soak them in dishwater with allot of regular white vinegar. You can do the same thing in the dishwaasher. Just set it up as usual, but pour a good amount of the vinegar in the door of the dishwasher and close, then wash as usual. They will sparkle when it's done.

Answer 2

Hard water deposits form when calcium, magnesium and iron ions in your water form insoluble compounds with soap. These compounds are generally soluble under conditions of lower pH, so soaking the glasses in vinegar (an acid) should dissolve the deposits and leave you with clean, sparkly glassware.

Answer 3

Limescale remover will remove the stain. But the only way to restore the clarity of the glass is to have it reground/repolished. If the damage is on the inside, typically in a decanter, then you will have to get it done professionally. The restorer will have something like a cross between a conveyor belt and a mangle. They will roll the decanter for days and days, varying the grit inside according to the extent of the pitting. Only worth doing with very valuable items, and then only by a professional.
