[QUOTE="Lecollectionneur, post: 442655, member: 8569"]Thanks, it's the same word used as in french then, this friend explain me that with a high quality decanter where you let some water when cleaning, without the alcohol last rinse, let it closed in a place where it can have the sun on a face for example. Each day/night difference one after one you make distillate water which descend in the decanter and cause this glass sickness in a few weeks, distillate water is really a poison for glass, always use alcohol(white-spirit) for the last cleaning and let it open until it's totally dry. For people having some experience in glass you can make the difference between calcium deposit and glass sickness, aspect is really different(sort of milk-grey colour) and you can touch with your finger or anything to compare, glass sickness is impossible to touch, calcium makes a rough surface.[/QUOTE]
