Window Cleaning Tips

Tip 1 - Old T-Shirts and Newspaper

I know people like to use paper towel but I am not a fan of paper towel just because it leaves behind particles.

Newspaper with water works wonderfully, only thing is the newspaper may leave your hand all black.  On the pro side, it is natural from ammonia and other additives.

Old t-shirts can be used for the window sill as it may leave particles behind too. I really enjoy Spring Cleaning.

Tip 2 - Detergent, Mop and Micro-fiber Cloth Work Great

Just fill a bucket with water and dip a mop into it or an old towel. Take some detergent, put it out on the wet mop and rub it together till its foamy. Now thoroughly rub it all over the window, especially in parts where there is a lot of dirt. Now rinse the mop and rub it over once again. In the end, use the micro-fiber cloth to remove any stains, marks or streaks left behind.

Tip 3 - Use an anti-static spray if your windows collect a lot of dust

Anti-static spray can prevent the collection of dust and will make it easier for you to clean your windows. You should ideally use the spray on windows which face the road or are more likely to get dirty. Some other tips are in the link I am sharing.

Tip 4 - Use a soft brush and lemon-scented detergent

If your windows are really dirty you can use a soft brush and lemon-scented detergent to wash them thoroughly. Make sure the brush is soft though otherwise you will leave scratches on the surface. Just make it all wet and brush it enough to lift all the accumulated dirt.

Tip 5 - Use Vinegar and Paper Towels

Vinegar is acidic and works really well for prints and dirt. You can use it directly along with paper towels to rub the windows hard and wipe them clean afterwards.

Tip 6 - Try Ammonia

You can use ammonia with water to remove any greasy prints on your windows. It also dries very quickly but can sometimes leave streaks, so make sure you rub the windows well with a fiber cloth or towel.
