Streaky windows dull the natural light in your home. With the right tools and timing you can achieve a crystal-clear, streak-free finish every time.
Step-by-Step Guide
Dust the Frame and Sill
Wipe away loose dust and cobwebs first so they do not smear when the glass gets wet.
Spray and Wipe
Spray a vinegar-and-water solution or glass cleaner and wipe with a microfiber cloth.
Squeegee in an S-Pattern
Use a squeegee in overlapping S-strokes, wiping the blade between passes for a clear finish.
Buff the Edges
Dry the edges and corners with a lint-free cloth to catch any remaining streaks.
Pro Tips
- Clean windows on a cloudy day to avoid fast drying.
- Use newspaper or microfiber, not paper towels.
- Work top to bottom.
Final Thoughts
Streak-free windows let more light into your home and make it feel brighter and cleaner. Cleaning on an overcast day is the easiest way to avoid streaks.
