Spring is finally here, which means it’s time to plan your home maintenance tasks for the entire season. Why not start with your windows? Doing so will help brighten your home exteriors, giving you a renewed sense of clarity and freshness. This post will provide good advice on how to clean your windows properly!
Gather the Supplies
First, you need to gather the right tools and supplies for cleaning windows. You probably already have some of these at home. These include rags, a soft brush, a bucket of warm water mixed with dish soap or store-bought window cleaner, an old toothbrush made just for cleaning tight corners, and white vinegar (or lemon juice).
Cleaning Your Windows
To get a shine without streaks, start by brushing off the dirt and dust with your rag or brush. This will make sure that the surface is spotless before you scrub it. For the best results, move your rag around in a circle. Then, dip it into the mixture of water and cleaning solution, which can be changed based on how hard the dirt is to get rid of.
You may want to use an old toothbrush in tight corners or deep tracks, as well as razor blades for tough stains on the window glass. Rinse using clean water (often through an open window) until all soap residue has been washed away. Dry using a clean, lint-free cloth to achieve a lustrous-looking glass!
Finishing Touches
When you’re done cleaning the windows, you can make them shine even brighter by adding these finishing touches. You can naturally get rid of stains by adding white vinegar to your water mixture, or you can use lemon juice instead. At the end of your project, you’ll want to make sure the windows are shut tight so that nothing else can mess up how clean they are.
