Mirror Mirror on the Wall, Can You Be Cleaner than Them All?

Mirrors and windows can be frustrating to clean. Many times after cleaning, mirrors and windows will still have streaks, specks, dirt or a fog of cleaning chemicals left on it. There are several different cleaning strategies that can leave a surface streak-free and sparkling until the next cleaning.

There is an assumption that you have to use a commercial glass cleaner to get the job done, but in fact you can combine white distilled vinegar with 1 quart of warm water to clean both mirrors and windows.

Depending on the number and height of windows, it may be necessary to obtain a professional window cleaning service to get the job done. Interior window cleaning will be easier for those reachable areas where dogs may put their noses and children their fingerprints. Exterior window cleaning requires taking off the screen and in some cases using the hose to rinse away any excess dirt.

Clean the surface first to remove any heavy dirt or marks. Use plain water to do the pre-cleaning. Newspapers can be used as a cleaning cloth as long as they are not of soy-based ink. You can also use a microfiber cloth, coffee filters or a diaper to obtain a streak-free, lint-free result. Use a squeegee for best results on windows.
