pickling glass: my results

[rocketcat]

Hello all. I'm sort of old/new again. I've been around but not on here for some years.
Anyhoo. I have been having a heck of a time with my clears scumming, and dont even get me started on how bad a time i had with messy clear. I couldnt melt it cool enough to stop the gunk.
So i tried the pickling...O.M.G. The difference was phenominal. I had been cleaning with rubbing alcohol, but i might as well been rubbung them in dirt.
If you have been wondering if it really makes a difference, it really does. Even the messy clear is good!

I'm really stunned by how beautiful and sparkly my glass is now, and the colors really pop. A lot of my glass has been getting dusty for years. Now that I have it all clean, I'm going to keep a cover over it when I'm not working.
