[QUOTE="Star*, post: 435503, member: 4964"] I know you are probably going to think "OH no Star" but ...........My son did this to my Mom's beautiful HUGE mirror in her house -----and he did it trying to clean it. It happened with a paper towel. Can't tell you what or how ------All I know is he thought the mirror needed to be cleaned and he was trying to be helpful....went into the kitchen and got a regular old paper towel or two and started to wipe the mirror and that looks EXACTLY like the streaks she ended up with. EXACTLY...they won't buff out, they don't go away when you wet them with cleaner - they can't be seen from the back of the mirror (like the silver came off) It was the weirdest thing - I'm wondering if he thought he was helping to clean the mirror and something was either in a towel or stuck to it - like a piece of candy or a hardened something? Or a rock in a piece of gum and he didn't know it was there and just was wiping the mirror - and he kept wiping the mirror - or he tried to clean the mirror with the paper towel and something was in the towel? You may ask him casually - "When you cleaned this mirror - show me what you used?" and see what he shows you. Then inspect the rag used - just say "I want to check out that rag so we don't use it on anything else like a car or another mirror." [/QUOTE]
