How to clean your windows with soap and a squeegie



Aloha! My name Wyatt, owner of Aloha House Cleaning. Whatever you do, do not try to clean your windows with Windex. Windex is best for small jobs. Professionals use soap. I like Dawn dish soap. It's bio degradable, it smells nice, and when you pass your squeegee with Dawn, it slides nicely, and it dissolves without leaving a trace. Are you ready to clean your windows?

Here's what you need:
  • A Scotch- Bright sponge
  • Dawn Dish Soap
  • A coffee cup
  • Some terry cloths or small beach towls
  • A medium sized squeegee
Here's how you wash your windows:
  1. Wash your hands well with the dish soap
  2. Put a dab of soap and the rest water in your coffee cup
  3. Dip your sponge into the cup
  4. Swirl the soap across your window from top to bottom using the soft yellow side of the sponge
  5. Trace along the edges or sides of the glass with a terry cloth
  6. Use the squeegee and work from side to side, or top to bottom
  7. Make sure that after tracing a line with your squeegee that you dry it really well with a fresh clean cloth
The reason that most people leave streaks is that their hands, squeegee, or cloth are not completely cleaned. Follow these steps, and you will leave clean and shiny windows.
