Now, start with these clever tips from Pure Bright Cleaning to clean your windows and feel the bliss.
- Pick a cloudy day: Direct sunlight makes the windows dry too quickly, leaving ugly streaks behind. Also, beware of the rain.
- Eliminate the dust: Remove the curtains and blinds to make the window most accessible. Use the dry brush or broom handle to remove cobwebs and dust.
- Use a sponge to give the first wash to your window: Use a purpose made window cleaning solution, diluted in warm water. Always test the solution before use, to avoid damage to the windows and paintwork.
- Use the squeegee like a professional: Starting from the top of the window, use the squeegee in reverse-S pattern for best results.
- Dry the glass and windowsill: Use the microfibre cloth or drying pad to remove the remaining water from the window and surrounding areas.
- Choose your equipment widely: Choose your products after quality recommendations and always test before using them on a large scale. You can also try home-made alternatives and DIY solutions to make your own products, without visiting the store.
- Remove the grease with vinegar: Add 2 tablespoons vinegar to warm water. Add household ammonia or borax into the vinegar cleaning solution. Spray on the window glass and wipe off with the drying pad.
- The crumpled newspaper on windows: To make your windows sparkle, clean the dry glass with newspaper as the printer’s ink can give your windows a gleaming look.
