Default Cleaning a glass viv?

Just managed to pick up a bargain on a large exo terra terrarium with all the trimmings (pump, mister etc..), but its all build up on the inside. I'm wanted to tear it all down so I can design my own (for Darts)

Question is: What is the best way of cleaning silicone of the glass?

You can buy specialist silicone remover from dartfrog.co.uk.

As for random smudges and stains, use a slice of lemon. I swear by it.

For general glass cleaning get a micrfibre cloth from LakeLand (other suppliers are available ) You just wet them with water (good quality of course)
