Window cleaning may sound a daunting task for those who don’t want to go through the regular chorus of cleaning windows. Window cleaning, unlike carpet and upholstery cleaning is not much of an accessible job. Ladders or extendible tools are required more often to do the cleaning of inaccessible areas.
The 5 Easy Ways of Window Cleaning
Even if you don’t want to go for a professional window cleaning Wellington service, there are few tips and tricks that can save the day for you. Following these 5 ways for sparkling and shining windows in your home, you will beat all the cheap cleaners.
Start with the preliminary cleansing
Before you start with the hardcore cleaning there are some initial cleaning that needs to be done. Initial cleaning is important to remove all the grime and dirt from the windows both on the outside and inside. Daily usage of the mirror in the bath, water splashes and soap and toothpaste deposits makes it look old and spotty.
The preliminary window cleaning from outside may be a lot easier, all you need is a garden hose, not with a high-pressure water that you do for a car wash. Spray on the windows to remove all the dust particles and grime from the surface. Dust particles from storms and rains that have formed on the windows will go away. Clean the sills with a toothbrush so there is no dirt left in the unseen areas.
On the inside, for cleaning windows you will need a cloth or small towel, soaked with clean water. Don’t worry about the greasy stains, that will be dealt with later.
Get the most effective detergents
Don’t be a cheap cleaner when it comes to the cleaning detergent for your window cleaning. Every grocery store caters for these cleaning detergents. Opt for those who have an eco-friendly formula, they might be a bit costly but it pays off in the long run to have an eco-friendly cleaning agent at home. There is always an alternative to commercial glass cleaners. Homemade glass cleaners are becoming more popular due to its low cost and high performance. They cause no harm and can be made without any hassle.
Choose the right window cleaning pads
Even though you may be a fan of paper towels when it comes to glass cleaning but in this case avoid them. Paper towels will leave messy lint on your otherwise clean glass. Surely you don’t want to leave lint on your glass when you are finished with all the hard work of window cleaning. Your best tool of trade here will be the low-lint towels or the microfiber cloth. Favored by many professional window cleaning specialists the micro fibre is probably the best for cleaning windows streak-free.
Direction Matters
Another important aspect of having streaks on your window glass even after doing a great deal of cleaning is the one-way direction most people do. Just like painting, glass cleaning is not a single direction cleaning process instead, you have to change the direction once you are done with one. Most people complain they have steaks and lint on their windows when they have done the cleaning, while they have done a good window cleaning what they have not done is the doing it in multiple directions.
Finish with a Buff
Don’t call it a day until you have put the final touches on your window cleaning. Take a dry microfibre and buff it over the surface where you see any streaks or lint. This will serve as the final touches to a job well done.
