Nothing beats the look of freshly cleaned, streak-free windows. With the right method, you can achieve a spotless shine quickly and without frustration. Here’s a simple step-by-step process.
What You’ll Need
- Bucket of warm water
- A few drops of dish soap (optional: a splash of white vinegar for extra shine and grease-cutting power)
- Squeegee
- Microfiber cloth
- Dry towel
Step-by-Step Process
1. Prepare the Cleaning Solution
Fill a bucket with warm water and add a few drops of dish soap. For stubborn grime or extra clarity, mix in a splash of white vinegar. Stir gently.
2. Wash the Window
Dip your microfiber cloth into the solution, wring it out until just damp, and wipe the window surface thoroughly. Cover the entire pane, focusing on smudges and dirt.
3. Squeegee for a Streak-Free Finish
Right after washing, use the squeegee. Begin at the top of the window and pull it down in smooth, straight strokes. After each stroke, wipe the blade clean with a dry towel—this prevents streaks.
4. Final Touch
Check for leftover spots or moisture. Buff away any remaining streaks with a clean, dry microfiber cloth.
Results
Follow these steps and you’ll have crystal-clear, streak-free windows in just a few minutes—efficient, simple, and effective.
