Prepare your cleaning solution: Fill a bucket or spray bottle with warm water and add a few drops of dish soap. For extra shine, mix in a 1:1 ratio of white vinegar and water.
Remove dust and loose dirt: Using a dry microfiber cloth or soft brush, wipe down the window frames, sills, and glass to remove dust and cobwebs.
Clean the interior glass: Spray the cleaning solution onto the window or dip a microfiber cloth into the bucket and wipe the glass in circular motions, focusing on spots and smudges.
Wipe and squeegee: Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to wipe the window edges and a squeegee to remove excess water. Move the squeegee from top to bottom, wiping the blade with a cloth after each pass to prevent streaks.
Tackle the exterior: For outside windows, use the soft-bristle brush or sponge dipped in the cleaning solution to scrub away dirt and grime gently. Rinse with clean water afterward. Use a ladder safely if needed for higher windows.
Dry and polish: Wipe down frames and sills with a dry cloth. For a streak-free finish, you can polish the glass with crumpled newspaper or a dry microfiber cloth.
