How to clean windows effectively?

[Af2373]

guys, anyone knows an effective way to clean windows? anything special tools or chemicals needed?!?

 

i've tried a few methods....wet newspapers.....window cleaning spray....both methods combined. somehow, it's not easy to apply and the results are not that good.

I used a wet cloth soak wif car wash shampoo to wipe it of grime and dust.

Rinse,

Use another clean & wet cloth with no soap, wipe again.

 

Then use a dry cotton cloth to wipe dry. Shiny Clean liao, no streaks.

Method produce better results then those expensive windows cleaner sprays.

The Magic Clean Home Glass cleaner is better than armorall window cleaner.

Use 1st cloth to wipe up the water, follow by a 2nd cloth to dry it. That's all. Nothing special.

ok, not selling mysticmaid cloth here but i truly have very positive experience with it.

 

the cloth is called mysticmaid cleaning microfiber cloth. just wet the cloth and wipe the windows with it. no need chemical or whatsoever. windows super clean thereafter!

 

the cloth is not cheap though.... $15 (www.zedott.com free delivery i believe).

I bought those cotton ones from Carrefour, think no brand type. no loop kind (like towel). It leaves very little lint. What I do with lint is use that cloth to beat those area. Ta Dah! shiny clean.....until birdie poop sortie.

 

In fact those cotton ones is better than the syn chamois specially made for cleaning auto window. Bought 1 and it leave marks.

 

Do you wash the windows with shampoo first?
