Lemi Shine? Detergent Booster - 12oz.

My water glasses were totally clouded and smudged and dirty looking. I hand washed them and that did not help. I soaked them in vinegar and that did not help. I changed dishwasher detergent several times and that did not help. I was about to buy a new dishwasher and ran across Lemi Shine Super. One washing and you can now see through my glassware. They are totally clear except for the scratches you can see where I had scrubbed them trying to get the cloudiness and smudges cleaned off. I thought perhaps the Lemi would also get my black cooktop streak and smudge and water spot free. Don't try that. What a mess that was. (The best thing for that is still Odo-Ban spray and a microfiber cloth. And that still is not satisfactory.) Since Lemi is expensive to use every load, after running the glasses through two loads, I ran them through with just a new dishwasher liquid I just bought - Palmolive ECO Dishwasher Liquid. They did not cloud back up. I will see how long it takes using just the ECO to make them cloudy again. Before using the Lemi I ran the glasses through with just the ECO and they were still cloudy and dirty looking, but I am hoping the ECO does not create (or allow the water to create) the cloudy film like the other detergents have.

I use this as part of a formula in cleaning brass cartridges/cases. This formula is the one I use with great results. I have been doing this for a very long time and it works great with the Lemi Shine Rinse additive. I have a tumbler which I load with water and used cases and s/s media pins. I add one teaspoon of Lemi shine Detergent & Lemi Shine Rinse +Dawn Platinum Dish Foam (you pour a "liquid" teaspoon out of the bottle not the foam). I tumble them for 1.5hrs., rinse and repeat for 1.0hrs., and finally I tumble the cases in a corncob/walnut w/polish media mix for about an hour. In 3.5hrs. you are done. They look and "feel" as good or better than new.
