Confirm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for
approximately 5 minutes. If removed, the problem is due to hard water. Adjust detergent
amount being used to match water hardness (pg. 9). Be sure detergent is fresh, stored
properly and is a high quality brand.
If cloudiness is not removable, it is etching. This is an erosion of the surface of the glassware
and can be caused by water that is too hot, from using too much detergent or by
prewashing. Detergent needs food soil to act upon. If etching has occurred, the glassware is
permanently damaged. To prevent further etching, adjust the detergent amount to match
the water hardness, stop prewashing and use water heating options only when incoming
water temperature is below 120° F (49° C).
