Hi Dr Chemical. What is the best way to keep our glass pool fence clean? We have a salt water pool and don’t want to get glass cancer. We currently hose it down after the kids have used the pool. Do we protect it with a nano spray? Shannon Lush recommeneded almond oil? Thanks Michelle

The mistake you have made is listening to Shannon Lush. Glass doesn’t get cancer. And I wouldn’t use a natural oil such as almond oil anywhere where it gets exposed to the sun as it will oxidise and degrade quickly, possible even polymerising (linseed oil) and making a gooey mess.
Use an acidic cleaner such as Ajax Spray and Wipe to get dried minerals off. Then Windex with a squeegee to get a streak free clean (if you do it regularly you can skip the first step and just use Windex). Then Mr Sheen – that will coat it with silicone which will protect the glass against future mineral buildup
