Moving slowly in a small circle motions with very little pressure works great. Glass, Tin, Paper. Never use water. Try the bottom area's first to test on your own. Also I have a fan on the globe which makes the drying quicker. Hey globe’s, I have over 200 globes, I use a light mixture of Windex spayed misting on a soft paper towel or felt cloth.

I do it once a year as a lot of them sit on shelves around my living room.
