Window Cleaning the Streak Free Way
Spring time is here, hooray! Oops, I guess living in San Diego, it’s always spring time weather. What can I say?
Being the owner of a San Diego window cleaning company does have its advantages. But let me tell you, just because the weather is perfect year around, does not mean we don’t know what a dirty window is.
We tend to take it for granted that since we don’t get bad weather, we think our windows can never get dirty. Uh, scratch that.
Now before I get started, this isn’t just an article for Southern Californians. These window cleaning tips are for any part of God’s green earth.
Ready to start? Let’s begin.
Can you guess what the main problem is when trying to clean windows? Those ugly streaks. We wake up one day feeling great, believing we can take on the world. So what do we want to take on? We want to take on our windows.
But, hold on there partner, before you tackle the windows, and I am not saying you can’t. Make sure you know exactly what you need to do. And it isn’t that hard.
Ready to begin? Let me fire it off rapid fire.
The first thing you need to do is have the right equipment. This isn’t the same job as cleaning your local family room glass table. No, this is glass that hasn’t been protected in a controlled environment. This is glass that has been attacked by the wind, the rain, the dust, birds, insects, doesn’t matter where your live.
So what is the right tools for the job? Well it isn’t going to be windex and paper towels. Not that easy. All you really need is a squeegee and a spray bottle, and then some paper towels.
Use all these tools, and cleaning these windows will be a snap.
So what now? You are going to need the right ingredient for that spray bottle. And what is this top secret ingredient? Well it is 2 parts. It is 2 gallons of water, and here comes the secret sauce, a teaspoon of dish washing liquid. That’s it? That’s all you’ll need. You get that straight, and beautiful streak free windows are yours.
One final thing I forgot to mention, and don’t hate me for this. You are going to have to add a lot of elbow grease.
Remember when you woke up all gung ho ready to take on the windows? Well after the third window or so, that little bit of elbow grease might just not be enough.
And when you start running out, don’t forget who gave you the great advice. Your wonderful local San Diego window cleaning company, who might be able to spare some elbow grease.
Until next time my friend, happy cleaning.
