The most important thing to understand is that you will be working around an electrical fixture, so it is important to take serious care. You should understand and follow all safety precautions while cleaning your chandelier. Ensure that you have turn off the power – it is even better to turn it off at the breaker box. If you choose to cut it off at the breaker box, ensure that you have alternative lighting available during the cleaning. Working in the dark is never going to produce impressive results.
Consider taking the glass and crystal off before you start cleaning. If you leave the glass and crystal in place, you will not be able to reach every corner of your chandelier. Cleaning the frame will also become much easier by removing the glass first. However, it is never going to be easy, especially if your chandelier is quite intricate and you have never done the cleaning before. Letting a professional do it for you will be a much better option here.
Be sure to use a tall ladder while doing the cleaning, as this will keep you from rotating or twirling your crystal chandelier. Rotating a chandelier is not a great idea because it can damage its support.
