Clean your windows on a cloudy day or when the sun isn’t directly shining on the glass to avoid streaks caused by quick drying. Store your cleaning cloths and tools in a clean, dry place after use to keep them effective for next time.
Variations:
Use a commercial window cleaner if preferred, but always test on a small area first.
For very dirty exterior windows, a mixture of water and a small amount of ammonia can boost cleaning power (use with caution and proper ventilation).
Add a few drops of essential oil like lemon or eucalyptus to your cleaning solution for a fresh scent.
FAQ:
Q: How often should I clean my windows?
A: Generally, cleaning windows twice a year is sufficient, but you may want to do it more often in dusty or rainy environments.
Q: What if my windows have hard water stains?
A: Use a paste of baking soda and water or a vinegar soak to help dissolve mineral deposits before cleaning normally.
Q: Can I use paper towels instead of microfiber cloths?
A: Paper towels can work but may leave lint or streaks; microfiber cloths are preferred for a smoother finish.
