I’ve watched people washing windows many times using the fanning method, which requires a very flexible wrist and when you get down to the floor for doors I find that awkward. The point the got me was cleaning off the edge so you don’t get streaks. I would never have thought of that so I’m going to give it a try. I might even buy a professional squeegee. Thanks so much for your professional explanations. A great, helpful video 😊

Yesterday I finished taking care of weeds. Guess I will be doing this next weekend 😢. I usually buy a gallon window solution at home depot that has the washing and shine in it. Windows are easy, but I have 20 foot wide sliding doors for the patio. I have used a power washer to rinse of the dirt and then spray soap solution in canon power washer. Then squidgy and wipe off any edges if needed. In AZ power washer works well to get the heavy dust off. I will try your method for the windows. Thanks

Im a professional window cleaner. So a few things. Dawn leaves a residue. Thos will attractive dirt. If you want long twrm clean use a professional solution from home depot or menards. Better longer results. I dont use dish soap. Its ment to be rinsed. The soap should allow rubber slip but only enough to allow slip and not be excessivly sudzy. Sudz are bad leaves more marks. A flat mucrofiber or bronze wool pad will work much better than the mop. Mote aggressive but use a 0000 grade bronze wool.

I never used pro gear before, but thanks to a simple $18 investment, I was able to clean all the windows/glass doors in my apartment in only 20 minutes (normally takes over an hour with Windex and paper towels). Not sure if there are different strokes with the fanning method for really large windows/doors like the two that separate my living room from my balcony, but the basic techniques you teach worked beautifully.

Something I love about dish soap is it's inherently not going to leave residues or perfumes behind. It isn't going to leave a film on your dishes or make them smell like perfumes. It's honestly great at cleaning most surfaces. I've used it on floors to clean up "drain backups" (Along with bleach obviously), and obviously washed my hands a few thousand times with it. They use it to clean off oil covered animals, so it's probably good for just about anything lol

I take a 2 gallons of luke warm water mix in a cap of regular downy fabric softer and using a window mop wash the window, squeegee the window down. When it dries the streaks will dry an off white. Use a microfiber towel and buff them off. The downy will leave a water and dirt repellant on the glass making your next cleaning easier. If your windows are really dirty have a bucket of clear water and rinse the window mop off in it frequently.

Pro tips - always clean windows in the shade when possible to avoid Sun heated glass from drying out too quickly & to help avoid streaks. Also, use those little brass keeper clips in both ends of the squeegee & don't let the rubber stick out from the ends more than 1/8". This allows exact edging so you don't have to wipe the edges as much, & also helps prevent edge drips before you can wipe them. I cleaned residential windows for 40 yrs. There's a bunch of things I could tell you but these few things are the most concise. An ultimate guide to cleaning windows would be by a pro, but this quick guide isn't bad for an amateur.

On a large house or business window it can be done perfectly in less than a minute with a squeegee. With rags it would take forever. Thats the biggest reason.

My windows are so easy to clean.,Hubby can power wash from outside but I have the kind I can wash both sides from the inside. I use just plain alcohol with some old wash cloths and they are so shiny and have never had a streak. I tried the alcohol one day and could not believe how wonderful they looked. I never use the blue stuff as you say and no paper towels. We have another item that you clean your car windows with, but I can’t think of the name right now, but I don’t use that either. My husband uses it outside, but I use plain rubbing alcohol

Manage the excess soap by limiting it as needed and roll a towel to put on the sill.

Nice! I use dish soap but have always added a little vinegar to my solution as well. I have 14 8' tall windows in the front of my house, and they face West. This is the only method that does not leave streaks visible in the afternoon. One question though, why the extra turn of the squeegee at the bottom? Why not just take it to the corner for the turn down finish?

The problem with doing some residential houses though is many people hardly ever clean their windows. So upon cleaning. It takes soo much to get everything clean. Frames are so dirty it takes almost pressure washing first to get them clean before you can even start washing the windows. Then theres most always some dirt left behind which your just pushing it around with the squeegee.
@HawaiiDetailing

Yeah. If it’s too dirty it would require some extreme effort and hopefully just maintenance after that.

QUESTION: what is the best cleaning fluid to remove tree sap from glass? in my case, i have roof top solar panels with glass coverings. i tried cleaning them with generic pressure washing cleaner mixed with windshield washing fluid in an electric pressure washer. performed several soaping then pressure rinsing cycles. helped a little, but much sap remained.

I just came on your video and subsribed. Just have a couple questions about it, (1) There's a difference between a microfiber towel and a lint free one? (2) When applying the sealant it's removed before it's dry or do you let it dry then buff it away? Thanks
@HawaiiDetailing
@HawaiiDetailing 8 ай бұрын
There are different quality grades of towels. A glass specific towel leaves no lint behind. Cheaper towels from Walmart leave little lint trails. Remove the sealant before it’s dry. It’s a spray on, move product around the surface with the towel, flip to dry side and buff off. Hope that helps.

Everything looks pretty good except dishwashing soap will leave a film. Spend the extra pennies for a pro solution like Dazzle. Why go through all that work only to have a haze in a month? There is nothing wrong with using straight pulls. Wipe the squeegee blade EVERY time before setting on glass.

I work in housekeeping at a mall and we use distilled water and dawn for all our glass. The dawn gets the foggy film build up off the glass from all the dust and moisture. That's the only that worked for us.

It does not leave a film, lol. That's what the squeegee is for. Use it right, there shouldn't be any residual residue. He's also applying a sealant spray at the very end. If your windows are turning foggy in a month, it's not due to dishwashing liquid lmao.
