    mm obviously "cleaning etch" wasn’t a descriptive enough title 😕 lets be clear I want to know how best to clean etch vinyl on glass not etched glass 🙄

    Martin – cheered me up no end to think there’s a solution but as usual you’ve been as much help as a chocolate teapot because you haven’t left her phone number 😀

    Mr Muscle glass cleaner shouldn’t do any harm.
    Pledge also would work but a bit more gloopy and may be more awkward to get out of any small gaps.

    If there are any fine cut points in a design in the frost care will have to be taken whatever is used to not lift them.

    I’d personally be careful with meths as I use it to clean off residual glue so if it got under any edges or points it could lift them.
