Outline the procedure you would follow when cleaning water glasses. (6mks)
To clean water glasses effectively, follow these steps:
- Wash in Hot Soapy Water (1/2 mark): Begin by filling a basin with hot water and adding a few drops of dish soap. Submerge the water glasses and use a soft cloth or sponge to clean them, ensuring to remove any residue or spots (1/2 mark).
- Rinse Thoroughly in Clean Hot Water (1/2 mark): After washing, rinse each glass thoroughly under clean, hot running water to remove all soap residues. This step is essential for ensuring the glasses are free from any soapy taste (1/2 mark).
- Dry on a Rack Upside Down (1/2 mark): Place the rinsed glasses upside down on a drying rack or a clean towel. This position allows any remaining water to drain out while preventing dust from entering the glasses (1/2 mark).
- Buff to Shine (1/2 mark): Once the glasses are dry, use a non-fluffy cloth to buff the glass surfaces for a sparkling finish. This helps remove any water spots that may have formed during drying (1/2 mark).
- Store Appropriately (1/2 mark): Finally, store the clean and dry water glasses in a clean cupboard or shelf, ensuring they are placed securely to avoid breakage (1/2 mark).
