Once you try this - you will never clean your windows with a different solution - I promise! This "recipe" comes from "Mary Ellen's Best of Helpful Hints" fast-easy-fun ways of solving household problems. Our family edition of this book has a print date of April, 1979 ! I am posting just in case I lose my copy! Solution is in ingredients other tips follow in directions

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine.
  2. 2
    Wash with clean sponge, or micro fibre cloth then Squeegee the water/dirt away!
  3. 3
    Never wash windows on sunny days. They will dry too fast and show streaks.
  4. 4
    Never use soap.
  5. 5
    For fast clean-ups, wash with cloth soaked in white vinegar. This method is great when washing only a few indoor windows.
  6. 6
    Shine with newspaper instead of paper towels.
  7. 7
    No more guess work with drying the inside panes with vertical strokes and outside panes with horizontal strokes, or vice versa - you will notice quickly what side has the smudges.
  8. 8
    After the windows have dried, rub a clean blackboard eraser over them for a really fine shine.
