Scrub hard and if not coming off something like Spray 9 may help if the window frames are vinyl. If you are going to use that test a small area first to make sure it will not stain or damage but in almost all cases it is safe.

We are English window cleaners and we do it differently and 10 times quicker. We would never use a mangy old towel we use micro fibre cloths. What the hell is the putty knife used for. We also would never just go up and down or side to side, that’s what a beginner would do. We go in all different directions never taking the rubber blade of the glass until the whole window is finished. But all that was back in the day. We mostly use the water fed pole with hot water coming out and you could clean that entire window, frame, and sill in 30 seconds. But I have heard that in the states you charge an absolute fortune to clean windows over here everyone has them done once every 28 days. Anyway best of luck in the future.

He was up the ladder, cleaned a large window, using a zigzag motion, wiped the ledge with his cloth, and was down again in less than 10 seconds. I kid you not. I went up to take a look at the window and it was spotless and shiny. No dribbles or streaks or marks from the rubber in sight. The guy was window ninja.

* Well not be a douche or anything but when you squeegee the window in 2 parts like you did, you leave a water line down the middle.. the best way is to start in the top left with the squeegee facing vertically and as you start to move the squeegee you tilt it at a 45 degree angle (that way the water runs downwards + you can get a clean line along the top of the window), you then proceed to go from left to right always keeping the squeegee at a 45 degree angle so there is no water marks left + all the water runs downwards.. only ever do it how you did if the window is near enough or perfect size for the squeegee.. the rest of your video i can agree upon *

What water, soap, vinegar mixture are you using? IMO you need a light 'dusting' and dry rag, damp rag over the glass and frame before even beginning your cleaning steps. And another thing do 2 windows and show clean up between. Just the same I leaned something.

1. Whisk the window: Use your wet towel and wipe off cobwebs off of the frame and the outside of the window. 2. Scrub the window: Use strip washer and see if there is anything that needs extra scrubbing. Scrub off extra debris with the end of the strip washer. You may use the paint scraper as needed but only use it if the window is wet. Make sure to close your scraper and put it away. 3. Wash the wi dow: Wash the window by starting with the borders and corners. Then wash the center. 4. Wipe the window: 5. Squeegie the window: 6. Dry the window: clean up dribbles: 7.
