I squeegee the water off whenever I’m done but later on it still has that foggy water look. How do I get the door to look actually clear?

      I have a dumb question: why heat up the vinegar? Does it help with some kind of chemical reaction in the mixing or does heat just help to make the mixture to be more effective so it needs to be used before it cools down?

      My apartment has incredibly hard water, so sinks, toilets, and showers always look rough. It just now occurred to me that maybe rain x on the glass after cleaning could be a decent preventative measure unless somebody can tell me why that’s a bad idea?

        I don’t have their reason, but a big one is that hot liquids can hold more things. It’s why adding sugar to hot tea and cooling it is better than using cold tea. Warm/hot vinegar will dissolve hard water remnants faster and with less manual input than cold/room temp vinegar.

          It’s not that “hot liquids hold more things” afaik, it’s that hot liquids have more energy to break apart the larger particles into smaller ones, i.e. dissolve them. Otherwise you’d expect the dissolved sugar to settle at the bottom when you cool the tea back down.
