Still, the best known and probably easiest way to clean your mirrors is to use a lather of hot water with a small drop of dish soap. You can also use methylated spirits, only this will leave streaks faster and in some cases it will create a blue haze. Therefore, I recommend you to try it first with dish soap, especially the PH-neutral variant. This is a bit milder, but is also very effective for cleaning your mirrors.
