Two wipers

Use two wipers – one for the outside and one for the inside windows. This will avoid bringing in dirt from the outside to the inside windows.

Dish detergent

Dissolve dish detergent in a little water and apply the liquid with a spray bottle. Dish detergents are excellent at tackling all kinds of dirt and making the window surface slippery so the wiper blade slides on with ease.

Why doesn’t your dishwasher wash well?
White vinegar

Use plain white vinegar in a spray bottle to remove stains from windows. Make a 1:1 solution of vinegar and water. The acetic acid cuts through grease and leaves no streaks, making it ideal for cleaning glass.
Use a soft-rubber squeegee

After spreading the cleaner with the beater, use a 30-40 cm. long soft-rubber squeegee to remove the cleaner from the windows. Change the rubber feather regularly as it becomes harder over time and does not scrub as well.

Window Cloth

If you want something quick and easy to clean lightly soiled windows and mirrors, use a regular window cleaner spray and a microfiber cloth specifically designed for windows. Like the wipes for glasses, it cleans perfectly without leaving streaks. Once upon a time, grandmothers used crumpled newspapers instead of a similar cloth, so this works too, as long as you have newspapers.

Shaving Knife

A shaving knife, or that gadget with a blade for removing vignettes and other stickers from car glass, are great tools for removing paint drips and other embossed grime on windows. The proviso is to always use a new and sharp blade because any nicks or rust residue on the blade can scratch the glass.

Use two cleaning cloths End of Tenancy Cleaning Brislington, Bristol

You clean the glass with the blade, but you will also need two cloths to clean the window frame itself, the edges of the seals and the sills. For this purpose, it is best to use one cloth for the outside and one cloth for the inside of the windows.
