Spring cleaning is coming up: you want to remove dirt and streaks from your windows.
Expensive special products are often used.
But it also works with shampoo.
Kassel – For many people, dusting, vacuuming or mopping the floor is part of their weekly housework.
Windows are cleaned from the ground up less often.
There are usually a number of utensils and special cleaners lined up in the cupboard.
They often don't keep the promise of streak-free shine.
Some people instead turn to old nylon stockings and lemons for a streak-free window shine.
But you can also use something that you tend to have around the house: your shampoo.
Clean windows with shampoo – pay attention to the ingredients
When you clean your windows, you want to avoid streaks.
Maybe you'll reach for the glass cleaner, which promises a streak-free shine.
However, you can save the money.
Similar ingredients can often be found in conventional shampoos.
For example foaming surfactants and glycerin.
They have a fat-dissolving effect and remove the dirt.
The formation of stripes and the deposit of new dirt is also prevented.
This means that you can use your shampoo almost as an all-rounder in your home.
No matter whether you want to clean your kitchen or the bathroom.

But beware: shampoo is not suitable as a cleaner for all surfaces.
For example, shampoo can cause streaks on wooden surfaces.
You should also clean the ceramic hob with lemon juice or dishwasher tabs.

Shampoo as a cleaner for the windows: this is how it works
Take a spray bottle and fill it with water and shampoo.
The ratio should be 1:3, informs the
portal
Chip.de.
Then mix the ingredients.
If you don't have a spray bottle handy, you can use a bucket or bowl for the water shampoo cleaner.
Spray the glass pane extensively with the water-shampoo-cleaner and let everything take effect for a short time.
Use the microfiber cloth to wipe the shampoo residue off the window.
If you still see dirt, repeat the process.
If you prefer to work with a window squeegee, you can also use it to remove the windows as usual.
With the next rays of sunshine, you can look forward to your clean and streak-free windows.
