However, using Vaseline's low melting point to your advantage by using warm water combined with products meant for emulsifying oils can make the process easier.
Things You Will Need
-
Dampen a paper towel and apply a drop of dish soap on it. Wipe areas with the most amount of Vaseline.
-
Place smaller glass items in the kitchen sink and fill it with warm water. Add about a tablespoon of dish detergent and let the items soak for up to half an hour. If your cleaning a window or something that is too large to place in a sink, skip this step.
-
Wet a cloth or sponge in warm water and apply dish detergent, as you did the paper towel. Rub this over the Vaseline-covered glass so that the soap coats the entire area. You may need to apply more dish detergent to large areas of glass.
-
Scrub the glass with the sponge or cloth and then rinse it with warm water. If the Vaseline is on a window or other large item, use a clean cloth saturated with warm water to rinse it off.
-
Mix a solution of 1 cup of vinegar to 1 cup of water in a bowl. Dip a cloth in the vinegar mixture and wipe it over the glass to remove any leftover traces of Vaseline or detergent.
