HOW TO:

  1. MAKE SURE YOUR LIGHT FIXTURE IS NOT HOT. Turn off for at least 30 minutes prior to cleaning your light fixtures, so they are cool enough to handle. Remove your light fixture. There are several types of light fixtures on the market, so you may need to find out the correct method to remove yours. Some of the more common ones will either be:
  • A twist style. Simply twist the fixture.
  • Clip On. Have 2 or more clips that need to be released from around the cover.
  • Internal Springs/Clips. Your light fixture should be able to just pull down.
  • Screws. There are 3 screws that need to be loosened to remove the light fixture.

2. Empty all the dead bugs/dust and dirt from the light fixture. You can empty directly into a bin.

3. Rinse under cold water in the laundry tub. For deep fixtures, place a microfibre cloth inside and use something long to move the cloth around to wipe inside.

4. Spray the outside with Spray & Polish and wipe dry using a fresh microfibre cloth.

5. Replace your light fixture.

This should be done every 3-6 months. Join the Cleaners Clubhouse to have access to my online cleaning calendar with daily reminders of tasks to be completed.
