How Do I Clean My Bicycle Glass Co. Shades?Updated 2 years ago

To properly clean your glass, you will need to remove the shade from the hardware. Be sure to turn off the power to the fixture before proceeding with this process. First, remove the light bulb. Once you have unscrewed the light bulb, hold the glass shade in place and unscrew the shade ring by turning it counterclockwise. Remove the glass shade from the fixture and carefully set it on a towel, rather than setting it directly on a hard surface as that could potentially cause damage. You do not need a lot of liquid to clean the glass properly. We use a diluted alcohol solution of one-part alcohol and one-part water, but if you are sensitive to alcohol it may be diluted as much as you deem necessary. You can also use a diluted glass cleaner and that should work just fine. We suggest using some sort of soft or microfiber cloth to wipe the glass to prevent streaking.

Once the glass has dried completely, you can reattach it to the fixture. Simply align the hole at the top of the glass to go through the socket set, hold the glass in place, and screw the shade ring with the wide and flat part of the ring facing up towards the ceiling, sandwiching the glass to the fixture. Then you can screw the light bulb back in and you are good to go!
