Tired of Not Being Able to See out of Your Windows?
Tips on How to Perform Basic Window & Solar Panel Cleaning
In order to clean windows properly, you will need to use a squeegee to avoid any streaks as much as you can. Sometimes, once both sides of a window as washed, it can be hard to tell which side is the one with streaks. To stop this, try washing one side using horizontal strokes and the other with vertical ones. The side which has the streaks can be determined based on the orientation of the streaks. Plus, you should always wash the exterior of the window first; these are usually the dirtiest, and by doing this, it will ensure the dirt on the interior is made much more visible.
To wash the exterior windows, first use a brush or dry paper towels – this will remove any debris or spider webs. If you find the exterior windows are especially dirty, try using a hose or spray bottle, this should remove much more dirt. From then on, both sides of your windows can be washed using a squeegee or sponge. Some type of professional window & solar panel cleaning product can be used also, as glass cleaning products will streak less than water will. Water sometimes contains impurities which will remain on the glass and leave unsightly streaks.
Sometimes, clean windows will look dirty, due to scratches and other minor imperfections. Minor scratches can be removed or at least greatly reduced. If you have an area on your window which contains small scratches, try using toothpaste. This technique is used by many professional home window & solar panel cleaning services, to repair small scratches. A soft tooth brush should be used in order to reach into corners.
To obtain a clean and shiny finish, try wiping your windows using crumpled up newspapers. Blackboards erasers or cotton t-shirts. All of these will give your windows a coating which is water resistant and leaves an excellent shine. These are just some of the best methods to achieve clean windows, and they do not need a great amount of money to achieve.
