What To Do
To remove the white film, run your dishes through a
dishwasher cycle with citric acid. Use a WD35X151
citric acid kit found online. Otherwise, use high quality
rinse agents such as Cascade
Cleaner or Finish Dishwasher Cleaner
®
local grocery store.
Pour the citric acid in the detergent cup and close the
cover. Place the filmed but otherwise clean glassware and
dishware in the dishwasher. Leave silverware and other
metal items out of the dishwasher. Turn the dishwasher on
and let it run through a complete cycle without detergent.
The glassware, dishware, and dishwasher should come out
film free. Alternatively, a vinegar rinse may be used. Pour 1
cup of vinegar into dishwasher just after the detergent cup
opens and let the dishwasher complete its cycle.
This may be repeated several times a year as needed.
The use of high quality rinse agents such as Cascade
Platinum™ Power Dry™ Rinse Aid or
Rinse Aid may help minimize a repeat build up of film.
Also, the use of high quality detergents such as Cascade
Platinum™ ActionPacs™ or
Automatic Dishwashing Detergent
