Hello everyone, I have a question regarding the cleaning of my IKEA Metod glass fronts in the kitchen. Despite regular cleaning, some problems occur, especially with tougher stains such as dried water spots, grease marks, and sometimes limescale residues. After cleaning, the glass surfaces often appear streaky or have smudgy residues, which significantly affect the overall appearance.
My question is: What proven cleaning methods and products can you recommend to thoroughly and gently bring the glass fronts to a streak-free, residue-free shine, particularly with heavier dirt? Are there any special cleaning tips that work well without damaging the surfaces?
I would really appreciate detailed answers, including advice on suitable cleaning techniques, recommended materials, or warnings about products that should be avoided. Thank you very much in advance!

Especially when trying many cleaning products without achieving the desired results, frustration can easily arise.
From my experience, it helps to approach cleaning with calmness and patience. I have often found that overly strong cleaning agents not only remove stains but can also cause additional problems over time, such as leaving residues on the surface.
Don’t give up and try to find the right product step by step. The tips shared here are very helpful, especially avoiding harsh chemicals and regularly finishing by polishing with a dry, soft cloth.
How often do you clean your glass? Sometimes timing is also important so that dirt doesn’t have a chance to become stubborn.
