Much like a new car, you want to keep your new windows looking wonderful for as long as you can. Even if you’ve had your windows for many years, it’s still very possible to keep them looking clear and pristine.

The team at Windows Plus in Cincinnati, OH are experts in everything relating to windows and doors, and know a trick or two for keeping windows looking “like new.” Check out the staff’s favorite cleaning tips for beautiful windows:

  • Direct Sunlight: Avoid cleaning when windows are being hit with direct sunlight, as this frequently causes cleaning agents to dry too quickly, resulting in unsightly streaks.
  • Hose: Spray exterior windows with a hose first to remove built-up grime and grease. This makes the cleaning process much, much easier.
  • Cleaning Tools: Use old, clean cotton cloths, such as old t-shirts, or microfiber cloths. Refrain from using squeegees on stained glass or textured windows.

  • Cleaning Solution: Clean windows using a small squirt of dishwashing liquid in a bucket of warm water. White vinegar also works well on windows—use ¼ cup of vinegar for every cup of water used.
  • Screens: Vacuum window screens to remove dust and dirt.
  • Side to Side: Clean interior window panes using a side to side motion, and use an up and down motion on outside windows. This makes it easy to tell if streaks are on the inside or outside of panes.

Keep these tips in mind and clean windows like a pro! For more on window installation, door replacement, and other services available through Windows Plus, simply call (513) 272-2222 or visit the website today.
