A white film on
This problem is likely caused
• To remove the white film, run your dishes through a dishwasher cycle with
glassware, dishware
by a low quality phosphate-free
citric acid. Use a WD35X151 citric acid kit found online. Otherwise, use Lemi
and the interior
dishwasher
detergent
Shine (WX10X10019) found at your 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 a rinse agent such as
Cascade
®
Complete Rinse Aid
may help
minimize a repeat build up of film. Also, the use of a highly rated detergent
such
as
Cascade
®
Platinum Pacs
will help prevent film build-up.
