Hi Alison, I struggle with mine as well and kind of wish I had just not insisted on white windows with white caulking lol The best I've found is white vinegar and a magic eraser and lots of elbow grease.
I use vinegar.
Magic eraser will help - try vinegar or oxiclean!
You can clean the caulk with some vinegar on a rag. Press lightly and clean it. If that don't work use hydrogen peroxide. The best thing to us Is 409 cleaner.
I use a small amount of Fantasik cleaner then scrub with old toothbrush and then rinse it works great

I use toilet gel cleaner to clean if really bad. But most of the time I just spray with white vinegar, Dawn Platinum and water in a spray bottle. Half vinegar, 2 tbls dawn rest water.
Hi! A good cleaning with Dawn dish detergent (I put it right in a spray bottle) and a toothbrush or denture brush from the dollar store usually cleans it right up. Vinegar also works. Good luck!
Baking soda and lemon juice I believe. Or iron out works great
Hot soapy water would be the best as some chemicals in cleaners can deteriorate the caulking
I use soapy water and a microfiber cloth. If it's bad, scrub with a soft toothbrush.
I would use a razor blade scraper similar to this
