Steps To Scrub The Windows

Take away any cobwebs you see with a stiff broom or an old rag.

Take them out of their tracks and rub them very gently with a soft rag.

Rinse off any excess dirt or mud from the surface windows with a hose. Rinse one window at a time, so water spots do not dry on the windows.

Put your sponge in the bucket filled with water and you’ll be able to start cleaning your windows following these methods:

Clean all of the window frames with a soaked sponge.

Start on the upper-left side of the window with a squeegee and create an curve downwards till you reach the bottom-right corner of the window.

start cleaning the window from the upper-left corner and drag the squeegee all the way down. Use the chamois or a dry rag to remove any excess water from the squeegee and start cleaning up the next line till you reach the top side of the window again.

Don’t forget to dry your squeegee with a chamois or dry rag when each stroke you’ve made. Otherwise, you will make visible lines on the window pane.

Dry the window frames. when cleaning the window panes, dry off the windows using a dry chamois or soft cloth.

Warnings:

Some sponges could scratch windows because they have abrasive materials on them so be careful what sponge you choose.

If you cannot remove the windows then you can use a ladder, but use it safely and do not overreach when cleaning. Whenever possible, use an extension handle to reach high windows.
