When To Clean Doors And Windows

It might seem like it would be best to clean your doors and windows when the sun is out shining brightly. But that might make it more difficult, as the cleaning solutions that you will be putting on will dry out more quickly than you’d like. This is why you should clean windows at a time when the sunlight is less intense.

The Right Tools For Cleaning

Before you learn how to clean doors and windows, you must know the right materials that you must use to clean them with. This is especially important when cleaning glass windows, as glass requires special materials to clean them with. Cloth or sponges, which come in different form factors, are the general materials of choice for cleaning doors and windows. A microfiber cloth works best to remove water stains from windows. And when cleaning doors and windows with sponges, make sure that the sponge has not become too old and dirty. Another factor that plays an important role in cleaning doors and windows is the cleaning agent you choose. Below, we have listed a few different and unusual cleaning agents readily available at home that you can use.

If you don’t need the extreme cleaning that vinegar and baking soda provides, then black tea is a great alternative. First steep some teabags in hot water, like you’d do when you make tea. Then let the water cool to room temperature, and then apply the tea to a cloth or sponge. Clean your doors and windows with it and they’ll look good as new.
