So, when it comes to cleaning it, the last thing anyone wants to do is take it down and then put it back up. It&#8217;s hectic and not to mention, unnecessary as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Given that most people with chandeliers in their homes are consistently looking for hacks to clean it more efficiently, we thought of digging deeper into the depths of the internet for you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This detailed guide highlights some of the easy cleaning hacks for a chandelier without needing to take it off the ceiling.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Use a spiked brush<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When it comes to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lightingo.co.uk\/145-brass-chandeliers\">brass chandeliers<\/a>\u00a0or even crystal chandeliers, you need to handle them with utmost care. This means that the last thing you want to do is end up using a corrosive chemical that strips off the shine on the chandelier is the last thing anyone wants or needs. So, your next best choice would be using the spiked brush to clean the cobwebs and the dirt accumulated on the top. We\u2019d recommend that you get a soft-bristled brush to avoid leaving scratches.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Use the drip and dry method<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since chandeliers are so delicate and susceptible to damage, we can\u2019t emphasize how good and effective the drip and dry method is. It allows you to clean down the upper surface of the chandelier with better efficiency and care. So, while you are at it, make sure that you use the products that are formulated especially for the chandeliers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Once you get your hands on them, follow the steps mentioned:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Start by taking out all the bulbs and the light fixtures from inside the chandelier. You should clean the bulbs individually as well before fitting them back.<\/li>\n<li>Cover the floor under the chandelier with a cloth or newspaper to catch the dirt and the drip that comes off after the cleaning process.<\/li>\n<li>Once done, you can then spray the entirety of the chandelier with the spray, ensuring to leave a thick coat on the surface. Let the spray work its magic and clean down the dirt and grime attached to the light fixture.<\/li>\n<li>Once everything is clean, you can take a clean and dry cloth and wipe down the excess spray off of the surface for optimal cleaning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Make sure that you do all of this while the chandelier is disconnected from any electrical source.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Rubbing alcohol technique<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you have the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lightingo.com.au\/39-rain-drop-chandeliers\">raindrop chandeliers<\/a>\u00a0in plastic design, the rubbing alcohol technique works amazingly for cleaning. Keep in mind that this method is only effective for plastic chandeliers and won\u2019t work well with metal or crystal chandeliers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We\u2019d especially recommend that you don\u2019t use it on the metal light fixture since the harsh chemical properties of the rubbing alcohol can end up damaging the surface and stripping off the color.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here\u2019s what you can do:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Start by switching off any electrical source. This is crucial and ensures safety during the cleaning process.<\/li>\n<li>Once that is done, take out the light bulbs from inside the chandelier. Keep them aside and give them a quick brush with a damp cloth to clean the dirt and accumulated oils on the surface.<\/li>\n<li>Coming to the chandelier, you need to mix equal parts of water and rubbing alcohol in a bowl and transfer it to a spray bottle.<\/li>\n<li>Take that spray bottle and spray it all over the surface of the chandelier and then use a soft bristle brush to scrub down the dirt.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We\u2019d recommend that you do it gently so it doesn\u2019t affect the color or create scratches on the surface of the chandelier.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When it comes to cleaning your chandelier, the last thing you need is to use ammonia-based cleaners. Since most of the house-cleaning products contain ammonia, we\u2019d highly recommend that you avoid using them on the chandeliers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Not only do they take off the paint, but they also cause corrosion and reduce the shine on the surface of the chandelier, which is disappointing.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. Replace the bulbs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The last factor worth remembering when cleaning a chandelier is to ensure that you check the lights that aren\u2019t working. While you are up on the ceiling cleaning out the piece, you can also change the light bulbs fixed inside the chandelier as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This will reduce any and every kind of hassle that you likely end up having while using the light fixture during the other days.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cleaning a chandelier is a hefty project that needs planning. However, it is a common misconception that you have to take it down every time that you wish to clean it. That isn\u2019t the case at all. This guide should give you all the common tips that you need to keep in mind when cleaning the chandeliers in your home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fixing a chandelier high up on the ceiling is a tedious task.
