Cleaning windows - what to use?

[Marcos]

What are your preferred products for cleaning windows inside & out?


And does the same thing work well on your car?

Pure water and a microfibre cloth will do the best job especially on windows that are just a bit dirty. If they're really dirty then use a bog standard applicator and squeegee with a mix of soap, water and vinegar.

I use pure water to clean my car and it does a great job.

This is the best stuff I've used for car windows.

Cleaning = steam cleaner. Drying = either the rubber blade thingy windows cleaners tend to use, a microfibre cloth, or a Karcher WindowVac, depending on how lazy I'm feeling.

Cleaning the windows inside I usually use Mr. Muscle and the outside using water + fairy liquid.

Car windows using wet wipes in the inside and outside just water or it is really dirty bucket of warm water + fairy liquid.

Wilko's window cleaner with anti-misting. Same for car interior, don't bother with anything special for car exterior.

Cool, Halfords have it. What cloth do you rub it in with? After the glass is completely dry or while it's still wet?

i got a autoglym microfibre cloth a while back to wipe it off when dry, you only need a small pea size or 2 for a windscreen, i use the perfect palm applicator to put it on so i don't get any on the fabric trim surrounds. i think it suggests leaving it on for a fair while before polishing off, almost like it is waxed the way water beads off it.

Ooh! Ooh!

Karcher window vac WV60.

When I was bought one I thought someone was taking the piss but honestly, one of my favourite gadgets I own! Very satisfying piece of kit to use.

I use CC Cleaner, does a great job of getting rid of all those nasty files.

Wait a minute........

this is not in the tech part of the forum.

Yep - same stuff they use as the 'anti-mist' agent in window cleaner.

Well Mr. Muscle is the best product for cleaning the windows, we are using that from many years and never face any problem.. Mr. Muscle window cleaner clean properly the window and can remove the hardest strains. But you have to just wait for few minutes after apply that on window.

If you need to clean upvc window frames, doors etc, i'd recommend any cheap old cream cleaner. I used Tesco value on mine when we moved into our new house and it brought them up lovely. As its non abrasive it will not damage the surface which could affect any UV protection on them.
