Step-by-step guide:
Prepare your cleaning solution in the bucket: Mix a small amount of dish soap with water in a bucket. This DIY solution is tough on dirt but gentle on your windows.
Apply the soap directly to the scrubber: Apply a continuous line of dish soap down each side of the the scrubber.
Squeegee: Use the 2 Stroke or Fanning method depending on the size of the window. As a rule of thumb if the window is less than 2 squeegee’s wide a 2 stroke method is acceptable. If the window is larger than 2 squeegee’s wide fanning is recommended to avoid streaks and lines. As a beginner using the stroke/pull method is the easier of the 2 methods. It gets great results and should be considered until you get comfortable fanning.
Repeat if necessary: For particularly dirty windows, don't hesitate to repeat the process until you achieve the desired cleanliness. Also do not be afraid to practice your technique over and over until you perfect it. Its not hard.
Inspect & Correct: Use a dry lint free glass microfiber cloth to polish away any streaks or missed areas as a finishing touch.
This easy window cleaning method is perfect for anyone looking to achieve professional results without the hefty price tag. Give it a try and let us know how your windows shine! Happy cleaning!
