Interesting Window Cleaning Fact:
According to Guinness World Records, the world's fastest
window cleaner is Terry Burrows of South Ockendon, Essex, England, who cleaned
three standard 45-inch x 45-inch office windows set in a frame in 9.24 seconds
at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham in March 2005. He used an
11.8-inch squeegee and 2.4 gallons of water to wash the windows.
Another Interesting Window Cleaning Fact:
Mary Anderson, of Birmingham, Alabama, was granted patent no. 743,801 on November 10, 1903, for a window cleaning device, essentially windshield wipers. Before the manufacture of the Model A, Anderson noticed that streetcar drivers were forced to open their windows in rainy conditions in order to see. The invention could clean snow, rain, or sleet by using a handle inside the car improving vision during inclement weather. By 1916, these wipers were standard equipment in American cars.
Are newspapers good for cleaning windows?
Over the years, there have been many opinions about which window wipers work best. Professionals do their wiping with natural-sponge applicators and rubber squeegees. Some purists feel the job is unfinished without careful application of a good chamois leather. Yet others swear by yesterday’s newspaper.
In a Consumers Union test of newspaper used with an effective commercial cleaner on heavily soiled windows, it was found that newspaper is not very absorbent. It takes a fair amount of wiping and rubbing to clean and polish a window with it. Newspaper also blackens hands and leaves ink smudges around window mullions.
Homemade window cleaning recipes
Homemade products can equal or best many of the aerosols, sprays, and premoistened towels in stores. They cost a fraction of the price for commercial products – a penny or less per ounce – and you can easily prepare them at home.
The Lemon Formula—works for lightly soiled windows. Mix 4 tablespoons of lemon juice in 1 gallon of water.
The Ammonia Formula – works for heavily soiled windows. Mix ½ cup of sudsy ammonia, 1 pint of rubbing alcohol, and 1 tablespoon of hand dishwashing liquid (do not use more than 1 tablespoon, or streaking may result), and top the mixture up with enough water to make 1 gallon.
Windows are meant to be seen through as well as to allow natural light to come inside. When windows are dirty they can't do their jobs. In order to keep your windows shiny and clean, it's imperative to wash the windows and to learn to do them well.
Order
1. Clean each of your windows in a specific order; namely from top to bottom.
You'll constantly battle the dripping water or cleanser if you work from the
bottom up. The liquid will continue to run in a downward motion and you'll
likely never wipe it all up before it starts to dry. The end result will be
windows that are riddled with unsightly streaks.
Cleaners
2. Window cleaners like Windex work well for cleaning your windows, but if
you run out, there are other options that you likely have in your home already.
White vinegar will clean your windows just as well---if not better than window
cleaning solutions. You may use it full strength or dilute it with water in
a spray bottle. Either way, spray or apply with a cleaning cloth and wipe
away. Your windows will be sparkling clean and free of streaks.
Outside Tips
3. Cleaning your windows from the outside is among the least favorite household
duties. There are kits available in retail stores designed to clean the outside
of your windows, using your garden hose. The hose nozzle attaches to a nozzle
on the bottle of cleaner. Turn on your hose. The water will then travel through
the hose to the cleaner, where it dilutes it and sprays the mixture onto your
dirty windows.
If you don't purchase one of these kits, you're destined to clean the outside
of your windows the old fashioned way. However, streamline your process using
these tips. Strap on an empty carpenter's belt and fill the slots with spray
cleaner, towels and a squeegee. Make sure someone is available to hold your
ladder steady at all times. Climb up and do your job with all your necessities
close at hand; eliminating the need for constantly climbing up and down the
ladder.
Tools
4. Invest in a squeegee. Fairly inexpensive and easy to find in most home
and garden or hardware stores, squeegees will make your window washing experience
faster and easier. A long handled version will make cleaning those tough to
reach windows a whole lot easier. Use your squeegee from the top to the bottom.
Plain newspaper will do a good job at cleaning your windows, too. Use instead
of paper towels for windows that are clean and shiny without little bits of
lint or dust affixed to them.
