Window cleaning: Treat windows with home remedies and they will be sparkling clean

If the

window panes are

a little dull after a few years, even hard

cleaning will

not help.

If you really want gleaming windows, the

linseed oil home remedy

works

wonders.

Simply spread the oil on the

window

with a cloth

and let it take effect.

You can do the same with mirrors that have lost their shine.

Here too, linseed oil is the product of choice.

Window cleaning: tips and tricks for cleaning without scratches

So that the

window

does not get ugly scratches

when

cleaning

, it is advisable to first brush off the worst dirt with a broom.

Then you can start with water and wash the window properly.

The best way to remove the

dirt

from the window is with a sponge.

It is important here

to clean

the

window

from the outside in, so to speak.

The

window frames

are often more soiled than the windows themselves. If you forget to clean the window frames, you will later smear dirt and grime all over the window.

You should also

rinse

the

sponge

thoroughly.

Otherwise

stones

could get

stuck and

scratch

the window while

cleaning

.

Cleaning windows is always allowed.

You can even wash at Christmas

Correct window cleaning: Tips for cleaning windows without streaks and streaks

If the first part of

cleaning

the

windows

is done, it is best to use a

puller

.

Simply pull the excess water off the pane horizontally

with the

slide

.

Every time the window is pulled off, the puller should be wiped off.

This is how the

windows are

really dry and sparkling clean.

If you don't have a puller at hand, you can of course also use a microfiber cloth.

The

pane of

the

window

should, however, be polished thoroughly with the cloth in order to achieve an optimal result.

A much recommended "

home remedy

"

When cleaning windows, simply use

newspaper

instead of a squeegee or microfiber cloth

.

With it you can polish windows in the same way and at the same time reuse the old newspaper.

But watch out: There is a risk that printing ink will come off here.

The printing ink can then

leave

dark marks on the

window frame

or

window sill

.

Therefore, it is better to use a

puller

or a

microfiber cloth

.

Cleaning windows in winter: - Beware of low temperatures

If it's very cold outside, this can

quickly become a problem

when

cleaning windows

.

Because the

cleaning agent

can freeze on the outside of the window if the temperatures are low enough.

It is therefore advisable

to use cleaning agents containing alcohol

, especially when

cleaning windows in winter

.

The formation of condensation after

cleaning

the

windows

should also be avoided.

Therefore, the apartment should be thoroughly ventilated again after cleaning the windows.

And if you are already fully

immersed

in the

cleaning of

the

house

, you should be aware of some nasty dirt traps * that are often overlooked.
