How to Clean Windows
-
Dry wipe to start
Before breaking out your cleaning solution, dry wipe your windows to remove loose debris. -
Mix it up for clean windows
Don’t spend money on harsh cleaning products. A two-gallon bucket, some warm water, and a drop of dish cleaner are perfect. -
Spray and sponge
Pour your cleaning solution into a spray bottle and spray onto your windows. Leave to soak for 30 seconds and wipe with a sponge. -
Find the dry line
Wrap a clean dry towel around your finger and mark a line across the top of your window to create a dry line to guide you. -
Work from top to bottom
Working from your dry line, squeegee from top-to-bottom in a straight line. Work across the window; a single pull is all you should need.
