Most stained glass windows require minimal care during their lifetime. Harsh cleaners such as glass cleaner should never be used on stained glass. If you do notice that there is dust on your stained glass, you can remove it gently with a feather duster or soft cloth. Avoid rubbing the glass too hard as this may scratch it or cause damage.<\/p>\n<h3>Stained Glass Restoration<\/h3>\n<p>While stained glass does not need to be cleaned on a regular basis by the owner, it may need a professional cleaning at some point in its life. This is best conducted by an experienced stained glass studio who has familiarity in working with older or antique pieces. Other issues, such as deterioration of the leading, may also call for professional care. If you notice that your stained glass looks murky, blurry, or distorted, you may want to call someone who can evaluate its condition. A reputable repair studio will work with you to find a financially feasible option for making the repairs that your stained glass needs.<\/p>\n<h4>Get More Information on Stained Glass Preservation<\/h4>\n<p>Do you have questions about how to clean, care for, or maintain your stained glass?
