    Good Point! Thanks Rocky, I planned a PBW and campden clean, but will be extra thorough this time.

    Glass carboy has outside residue that won't come off

    Rocky, that's good stuff to know. THX! Well, SUCCESS finally! It took 30% Vinegar from Home Depot and Scotch-Brite Advanced scrubber pad. Not too much elbow grease, just moderate pressure and circular scrubbing for about 10-20 seconds on each 'square' in the glass. Wipe with dry paper...

    Glass carboy has outside residue that won't come off

    So, here's an update. Home Depot was carrying 30% Vinegar the other day, so I sprung for a gallon ($20 *sheesh*). Put on paper towel and rubbed in, but no joy. Put soaked paper towel over an ugly spot and letting it sit for a while. Update will follow —A

    Glass carboy has outside residue that won't come off

    Hay Bob. So Amazon has horticultural vinegar at 75% for a reasonable price. Use that full-strength? How long should the solution stay on to be effective?

    Glass carboy has outside residue that won't come off

    That's a pretty good idea. Might resort to that so I don't have to deal with Craigslist

    Glass carboy has outside residue that won't come off

    Thank you, everyone, for the input and suggestions. I'm adamant about removing this stuff mainly because it blocks me from seeing if the inside is completely clean. Since my OP, I have tried GooGone - nope Muriatic acid (hydrogen chloride) - saw recommendation elsewhere for 10% dilution to...

    Glass carboy has outside residue that won't come off

    Hay everyone! I bought a few used glass carboys which just looked like they need to be cleaned. Turns out the white streaks on the outside are near impossible to remove. I've tried PBW, Windex, 409, vinegar, CLR, and steel wool. With 10 minutes of steel wool, I can get it off a small patch...
