Best Way To Clean Your Windows For Spring Cleaning
You may think that cleaning your window is pretty straight forward, but that’s not the case. Sure, cleaning the glass is a great idea. It cleans dirt, dust and other debris from the window and gives you clear views. What people don’t always focus on is everything else. Those cracks and corners in the window can be a real hassle to clean. In today’s article we’re giving you some quick tips on how to clean the nooks and crannies of a window. This way you window will function properly and you’ll have a spick and span window to look at for the whole summer.
Q-tips
A lot of people don’t know this but pro cleaners often use Q-tips to clean out the corners of the windows. They have the small cotton head which is needed where we can’t reach. Even our fingers are too big to reach into this insanely small crack. When all else fails remember that Q-tips are great for cleaning out those hard to reach places in a window frame. They are also great to run alongside the frame as they can pick up tons of dust left in the cracks.
Sponges
You can also use sponges to run along the frame as they can pick up dust and debris like nothing else can, but are gentle enough not to scratch the frame or anything else. Sponges just require a little bit of soap and water, that way you don’t get a chemical smell in your house. I don’t know about you but that’s always a plus for me in our home. Too many chemicals in a small space can really make your head spin. The great thing about sponges too is that you can even use them to wipe down the glass from the window as well!
Invest In A Squeegee
Professional window cleaners use squeegees all the time to clean large commercial buildings. The cool thing about this product is that it is very inexpensive to buy and it can also make your windows look brilliant. You can either spray on some Windex, or even just use a soapy water mixture as mentioned above and once you squeegee it’ll be like a real professional cleaned the windows. They’ll be so clear you may have to watch where you walk to not accidentally hit one.
Clean Window Screens
Window screens really take a beating. They’re constantly exposed to the sun, wind, rain and snow, and pollen and insects, not to mention all the dust that comes at them from inside the house. That’s why it’s so important to clean window screens as part of your spring maintenance routine.
