Clean windows brighten your home and make it feel more inviting. While Flyside Service in Austin, Texas, provides spotless professional window cleaning, you can keep your windows looking great between visits with these easy tips.
1. Use the Right Tools
Having the right tools can make a big difference:
Microfiber cloths: Streak-free cleaning without scratches.
Squeegee: Great for quick touch-ups.
Gentle cleaner: Mix water with a little vinegar. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Soft brush or duster: Remove dust from frames and sills.
2. Dust Often
Regular dusting keeps windows cleaner longer.
Wipe sills and tracks with a dry cloth or brush.
Use a vacuum for corners and tracks.
Don’t forget to clean window screens to prevent debris transfer.
3. Clean Spots Quickly
Deal with smudges, fingerprints, and water spots right away.
Keep a small spray bottle of vinegar solution handy.
For tough spots, soften them with a damp cloth before wiping.
4. Choose the Right Time to Clean
Weather affects cleaning results.
Clean on overcast days to avoid streaks caused by quick drying.
Avoid windy days that can blow dust onto your windows.
5. Keep Dirt Away
Prevent dirt from reaching your windows:
Clean window screens often.
Trim plants near windows to avoid sap and debris.
Use gutter guards to stop dirty water splashes.
6. Clean the Right Way
Follow these simple techniques:
Spray lightly; too much cleaner can leave streaks.
Wipe in one direction (horizontal outside, vertical inside) to spot streaks easily.
Use a squeegee for a streak-free finish, working top to bottom.
7. Don’t Ignore Frames and Tracks
Dirty frames and tracks can ruin the look of clean glass.
Wipe frames with a damp cloth.
Vacuum tracks, then wipe them down to remove grime.
8. Avoid Common Mistakes
Skip paper towels—they leave lint.
Avoid abrasive tools—they can scratch glass.
Rinse well if using soap to prevent residue.
9. Set a Cleaning Schedule
Consistent care saves time.
Weekly: Dust frames, sills, and tracks. Wipe off spots.
Monthly: Deep clean glass and check screens and tracks for buildup.
10. Call Professionals When Needed
Some tasks are best left to experts, like removing hard water stains, cleaning second-story windows, or tackling stubborn dirt.
