In theory, cleaning a mirror shouldn't be difficult. A few sprays of cleaner followed by a thorough cleaning appears to leave a streak-free, shiny, reflective surface. But all too often this is not the case.

If this sounds familiar, you're probably cleaning your mirror improperly. Here are some common mistakes to avoid.
Avoid these mistakes when cleaning a mirror
While the focus is on using the right product to clean a mirror, many of the most common mistakes are related to the technique and what is used to clean it. Here are some examples of these errors:
Use of paper towels
As useful as they are, when you use paper towels to clean your mirror, they usually leave behind a kind of lint that keeps it dirty. Instead, use a clean, streak-free, lint-free microfiber cloth.
Don't dust off first
Dust deposits are part of what makes the mirror dirty. And if you throw away the cleaner right away without dusting it first, the dust will get wet and then spread all over the mirror. The process will be easier if you first wipe the mirror with a clean, damp microfiber cloth to remove dust.
Use a dirty cloth or sponge
Always wipe your mirror with a clean, fresh cloth. The one you used to clean the rest of the room is dirty and will make your mirror worse.
Spray cleaner on the mirror
Doing everything right, but still have a scratched mirror? Some people find that spraying the cleaner onto their cloth instead of directly onto the mirror helps.
When you spray your mirror, it's easy to overdo it and use way more cleaner than you really need. If that happens, you could end up sinking and eventually scratching yourself. Spraying the fabric instead of the mirror prevents this.
