In spring, sunlight especially highlights all the streaks and spots on the glass. However, achieving perfectly clean windows can be done without expensive products. There is a simple homemade method that helps not only remove contaminants but also keep the glass clean for longer.
Why Streaks Appear on Windows
Over time, dust, dirt particles, and rain streaks settle on the glass. When the sun starts to shine brighter, any stains become more noticeable.
Therefore, when washing windows, it is important to pay attention not only to the glass but also to the frames. If this is not done, dust and dirt will quickly return to the surface.
Where to Start Cleaning
Before using a special solution, it is necessary to remove the main contaminants. For this, you can use plain water, a soft sponge, or a cloth.
First, it is advisable to thoroughly wipe:
- the glass;
- the window frames;
- the windowsill.
After that, you can move on to the main cleaning stage.
Homemade Glass Cleaner
To prepare the solution, you will need simple ingredients:
- half a cup of boiled, cooled water;
- 1 tablespoon of hair conditioner;
- 1 teaspoon of pharmacy glycerin.
All components must be thoroughly mixed and left for about 15–20 minutes.
The resulting solution is applied to the glass with a soft brush or sponge. After that, the surface should be gently polished with a clean, dry cloth.
Why This Method Works
Hair conditioner helps to remove contaminants and makes the glass surface smoother. Glycerin creates a thin protective film that prevents dust and moisture from settling quickly.
As a result, the glass stays clear and clean for longer.
Conclusion
If this cleaning method is repeated regularly, windows can maintain their shine and transparency much longer. Moreover, no expensive chemical compositions are needed to prepare the solution — just simple ingredients that are easy to find at home.
