Ahh, spring time is here, well okay, I guess living in San Diego it seems like it is always beautiful spring time weather.  What can I say?

Being the owner of a San Diego window cleaning company has it advantages.  But don’t think that just because the weather is perfect that it is impossible to have dirty windows.

As a matter of fact, because of the beautiful weather, being San Diegans, we take it for granted and assume our windows can’t ever get dirty.  Not so.

Let me clear one thing up, though, this article is not solely for Southern Californians.  You can use these window cleaning tips no matter where you find your self on God’s green earth.

Ready for the tips?  Then let’s go.

So let’s address the overarching problem when cleaning windows.  And that problem is those ugly streaks.  Let’s say you woke up and felt great.  So great you wanted to take on the world.  So what is it you decide to take on?  Your windows.

But, hold on there partner, before you tackle the windows, and I am not saying you can’t.  Make sure you know exactly what you need to do.  And it isn’t that hard.

Ready for the tips?  Here goes in quick fashion.

Now right off the bat, the first thing you will want and need is the right tools for the job.  This isn’t going to be a quick spray and wipedown of your family room glass table.  No, this will be glass that has months of dirt piled on, from the weather all the way to insects and birds making it dirty.

What exactly then will be the right tools for the job?  As I mentioned before windex and paper towels will not do the trick.  What you will need though, won’t be that intricate.  All you’ll need is a squeegee and a spray bottle, and then you can break out the paper towels.

Put all these tools together, use them correctly and you day of cleaning windows will be a breeze.

Okay, so you have those 3 tools, now what?  Well you are missing one last ingredient.  You are going to need something for that spray bottle.  And what you may ask is this secret ingredient?  It comes in 2 parts.  Ready?  The secret sauce is a teaspoon of dish washing liquid and 2 gallons of water.  Simple, but that is all you will need.  You put all these things together and you will have streak free windows in no time.

Oops, I forgot one last ingredient, and you will need plenty of this.  And this final ingredient is elbow grease.

Remember when you woke up all gung ho ready to take on the windows?  Well after the third window or so, that little bit of elbow grease might just not be enough.

Well when you do, don’t forget where you got the advice.  Your wonderful local San Diego window washing company, who won’t mind adding some elbow grease.

Till next time, happy cleaning.
