Every house should have windows, which are an indispensable part of the house structure. The warmth of light and sunshine can be thrown into the house through the window, and we can also see the outside world through the window. However, keeping windows clean may be the death of many people, but cleaning windows is not as difficult as people think.
1. What product should I choose to clean the window?
There are all kinds of window cleaner in the market. If you stroll down the aisle of a grocery store that specializes in cleaning products, you will find that there are so many cleaning agents for windows that you are dazzled. You can choose to use the popular window cleaner. For example, the ingredients contain blue ammonia water that can make windows clean as new, or other ingredients with the same effect. Therefore, you can also give up those detergents full of pungent ammonia smell and choose aromatic detergents. Of course, some products in the market are very popular in promotion activities, but what are the real effects? I'm flattered. To tell the truth, almost all window cleaner sold in the market are the same. No matter how well the propaganda work is done, it is actually just a marketing strategy. On the contrary, what you really need is the skill of cleaning windows, not those cleaners that can make your windows "clean as new". Just like choosing different household cleaners to clean windows, you also have different cleaning skills to clean windows. In addition, if you don't want to use the window cleaning liquid supplied in the market, you can also make your own cleaning liquid by using the materials already available at home. Whether you clean the windows in your own way or use the cleaner bought in the grocery store, you can have sparkling windows as long as you master some tips.
2. The first step of cleaning the window
In order to clean your windows correctly, you should follow some basic steps before cleaning. The first step is to remove the screen of your window. In order to put the screen back correctly in the future, you can first mark the border with a pencil. After cleaning, you can put the screen back in place according to the mark. Why use a pencil instead of other pens? Because other types of pens are easy to fade or blur when exposed to water, it is your best choice to mark with a pencil.
First, put the removed screen window in the bathtub or next to the bathtub. Gently clean the glass with a soft hose or shower to remove cobwebs, dust and other dirt stuck on it. Second, take some soapy water from the bucket (detergent will do), soak some soapy water with a short brush, and then gently brush the screen window in circles to ensure that there are enough soapy bubbles on the glass. Third, wash the soap with a hose or shower, and then wait for it to dry. If there is a screen that needs to be repaired or replaced, it does not need to be put back. Put them aside and get rid of them when you have time. In addition, don't put the screen back in a hurry unless you have completed all the following window cleaning steps. Cleaning the screen window is the first and most critical step-if you don't clean the screen window, dust, dirt and cobwebs will make the window you just cleaned dirty faster.
3. Introduction of window cleaning products
After cleaning the glass, it's time to choose cleaning products. Whether you buy it in a store or make it at home, you need a product to clean your windows. In fact, there are many kinds of cleaning products on the market, and which one to choose depends on your own preferences.
Paper handkerchief is one of the options, but the disadvantage of using paper handkerchief is that when you finish, some scraps of paper will stay on the window, which may make your window look dirty. Of course, you can use high-quality paper handkerchiefs, and even some paper handkerchiefs specially used for cleaning windows are sold in the market. If you insist on cleaning the windows with a paper handkerchief, then you can consider adopting the above suggestions.
Similarly, you can wipe your windows with rags that won't leave scraps of paper, such as sheepskin or microfiber rags or other similar products, which can help you achieve the super cleaning effect of "clean as new" windows.
Another good helper for cleaning windows is a newspaper that every family must have. Maybe you will ask, "will the black ink in the newspaper get your hands dirty and rub them on the window or other places in your home?" Please don't worry, the black ink in the newspaper won't rub against the window. Roll up the news newspaper and clean your window horizontally, which will achieve the desired effect.
Another very common window cleaning tool is coffee grounds filter paper. The usage is the same as the newspaper cleaning method mentioned above. Wipe horizontally and clean the window in circles to make your window clean as new.
