(HIT) - That familiar face reflected in your bathroom or bedroom mirror deserves all the best choices. Here are some tips for proper mirror surface care:

Ammonia destroys the backing over time leaving the mirror looking worn and splotchy. When you want to update, repair surface blemishes, or just spruce up, your household mirrors, Mirr.Edge™, a product of Millennium Development Corporation, has a system clear acrylic mirror and woodgrain frames that will fit your decorating scheme.

This practical, easily applied "do-it-yourself" product can conceal deteriorating mirror edges and transform unsightly mirrors into fashionable furnishing in minutes. Using only a razor knife and a measuring tape, the transformation is made without ever removing the mirror from the wall.

Beside saving time and money, restoring mirrors has the environmental benefit of keeping the toxic chemicals that make up the mirroring process contained, as it has long been known that breaking up many old mirrors and disposing of them in landfills and oceans releases reflective silver nitrate and red lead protective coating particles the atmosphere just doesn’t need.
