Remove green tint from glass edge

July 9, 2013 by Vikram Goyal

before-green-tint

Did you know that the edge of glass tip is green because of iron in the sand used to make the glass?

Before reading this quick DIY tip from Janell Beals from HouseOfFifty, I had no idea either.

And before reading this tip, I had no idea that I would be bothered with it myself. 🙂 But now I am.

Thankfully, Janell’s blog post also offers a solution – use a tube of rub n’ buff. The transformation is quite subtle but effective. As you can see in the after picture below.

Go to her blog post on this quick tip on removing the green tint and see the rest of the details.

    It looks good, but you are not removing it, it is being covered up with another colour. Surely Rub’n’Buff will wear off?
