Hi Dave,
just a couple of things worth considering...
make sure the sink/basin is scubbed clean of any build-up such as calcium, lime etc then a final go over with metho..I have the water warm to start, place the mirror in, then add more hot water to bring the temp up gradually to about 40C, then mix a few drops of detergent in a cup of water before adding it in...allow the mirror to soak for about 10 mins, give it a swish around then let it soak again for another 10 mins. Hold the mirror up on a 45 degree angle when you drain off then rinse with warm water then distilled water. Dry off using a rolled up plain tissue and touch the drops only! Allow to cool befoe re-installation. Don't worry if a few specks are still on the mirrors surface..it shouldn't degrade the image.
Also make sure you have nothing near the sink/basin which could do any harm..soap holders, scrubbers, pets, etc and do take off any rings, etc.
Cheers!
