I live in a hard water area & my glasses (drinking ones) are always grubby looking due to limescale on them - anyone know any way I can get these looking crystal clear - don't have a dishwasher

    Rubbing them with a cloth and some vinegar will remove the film of limescale :)

    Well done!
    Solved in one, and you just beat me to it.

    Counteract alkali with acid. Perhaps if the OP doesn't fancy vinegar, she can try lemon juice, orange juice etc.
