How To Clean A Window Quickly & Easily Like A Pro

How to clean a window properly and professionally, quickly and easily.

[@avonloma5819]

Excellent advice, but what do you use as your washing solution?

[@AlmonS.]

Dawn dish soap that's all

[@rpprevost]

One question . . . are you using some sort of cleaning solution? If so, what?

[@aaronanders990]

Just a few drops of simple dish soap and water

[@robertjackson3462]

Use dawn dish soap. Blue is preferable. It's a degreaser and helps the squeegee glide easily.

[@comrade_dzayk]

@@aaronanders990 can I use a multi-purpose cleaner like Ajax as a substitute for dishwashing liquid?

[@Teddibere1]

@@comrade_dzayk I wouldn't. It might leave streaks. I use a smidgen of HG in my Karcher water spray bottle.

When you scrape only scrape in one direction not back and forth that will scratch the glass also recommended to use brand new razor blades

How much should you charge to wash a window?

[@sandeesandee2562]

how frequently are we supposed to clean our indoors/outdoors windows? i'm so ashamed...i have been cleaning my indoors windows this week. Even the windows that don't open i was surprised to find so much dust and cowwebs. i did it the old fashioned way: spray and use microfiber to dry in circular motion...

[@travismarin2595]

My answer would depend on whether it's commercial or residential. The cleaning could vary from weekly, monthly, to bi-annually.

[@floydpearl3424]

You straight pull. Lol. Pros fan a window

Thanks man! I just got hired to wash windows on a multi million dollar property in DTC Denver, Colorado. This just gave me the confidence to tackle this job today👍🏻

Props to you there's nothing like watching a human that knows what the hell they're doing the "right " way. Only thing is my wife watched your video and now I have to do it your way... You must make a good living doing this !! Rock on and thanks for sharing your skills!!

[@AndersFishing]

Thanks for the love!

[@jaypond4368]

What about the boarders of the windows? When a window hasn't been cleaned in ages, there is all sorts of gunk caked on there. Is there a method you use? Or just scrub it with the strip washer?

[@AndersFishing]

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.

[@xfan420bush9]

This is the most boomer comment I have ever read. Well done.

Where can we buy the supplies you have the green bucket on your belt the squeegee and the strip scrubber thank you for your time Simon excellent video

[@mrsullyrox]

my only question is what did you wash the windows with? is the brush wet?

[@DonaMccarthy]

All great information but what do you use to wash the window with?

Use Dawn dish washing soap with warm water to dip your mop in to clean the windows, use this dude's method.Dawn is power full , use just a few drops in a bucket.

[@AllAboutPressureWashing]

Nice video

[@petrchutny]

Thanks for this one! Now I am more of a window pro :)

[@TheTammyMcDaniel]

This is just what I needed, thank you so much - we just had hurricane replacement windows installed and I want to keep them looking good. The new windows are so beautiful and I needed advice on how to keep them that way - appreciate your clear, concise instructions!

[@travismarin2595]

If you want to be extra careful, push the window scrapper in one direction only to avoid drawing back any debris that could scratch the window. Never use a metal putty knife on a window; use it for window screen detachment. Use a plastic putty knife instead for other stuck stuff on glass.

[@jaroddunbeck5893]

Wow this whole video and you didnt even mention what solution or water you are using. Wtf

[@aaronanders990]

Just simple dish soap and water!

[@LukeTheWindowCleaner]

have you ever tried steel wool ? works like a charm

[@joannepenner9778]

Wouldn't steel wool scratch the windows? ? ? Just saying....

Luke is right. But he forgot to say use #0000 steel wool. go check out his videos. He does a great job explaining it .

[@Refflog]

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.

[@jayphillips8594]

Absolutely wrong. I've been doing window cleaning since 2008 and that's totally wrong

[@GRIMEWARE-l2k]

I saw a window cleaner today. I was stunned. He only used one hand to operate both squeegee and mop at the same time. 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.

Just curious, if I wipe my squeegee on my dry towel as in the video, will it mess up my detail work?

[@robertjackson3462]

No you dont want to put your wet squeegee on your dry towel, you want your dry towel completely dry. I own a window cleaning business in Colorado and I rarely ever use a towel to clean my squeegee... I usually wet the window then tap my squeegee on the glass to knock off any debris caught on the squeegee.

I'm not sure why you need to wipe two edges of the soapy window before you use the squeegee. You say it's to give the rubber some grip. I'm confused...

Ever hear of low e glass, tint, etc, yea ur outside (but its poor advice and if ur scraping windows all day bad advice thats extra charge use wool) ur opening people up to thousands of dollars in insurance etc Bottom line dont scrub something twice for no reason, do it all when its time and dont scratch glass eith razors.

[@iiblucheezii2847]

* 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 *

[@mikecarey8610]

2700 likes can't be wrong, but.... I wash my windows in the early spring after months of winter. You're washing a clean window. There are so many things, easy things you're not showing. 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.

[@Emily-qn5cz]

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. Final examination:

[@alexgawthrop1748]
