Let's be honest here, I am not a good housekeeper.  But certain things bug the heck out of me, like windows I work on for hours and they still look terrible.  I have "discovered" a way many others possibly use, but just in case . . . I use one microfiber cloth with window cleaner first.  Then a completely clean dry cloth to finish.  I can't wait until spring to do the outsides of the ones I can't reach.

Re: My new way of doing windows

I always hated doing windows also, until I found Invisible Glass.  Glad you found something that works for you!  (I'm not all that great a housekeeper either, although I used to be....sort of!)

I hated cleaning glass, windows and mirrors too until Bio Cleaner cloth. Use water only. Awesome for me. I have many microfiber clothes from the Q.

@OKPrincess, is it the cloth alone that you use, or in conjunction with Bio Clean or some other cleaner? My windows have streaks after I clean them.

Cheap and effective window cleaner: blue Dawn dish liquid in warm water. Measurements can probably be found on line. Rince with clean water and dry.

Use water only and wring out as much water as possible. The clothes that come with bio cleaner are white. I just ordered and received a set of clothes. I do not use bio cleaner on glass or mirrors. Only cloth.

Re: My new way of doing windows

Just remembered an old way was with crumpled up newspaper. I can’t remember if I used water only or winded too.

======== Thanks, I didn't think you used Bio Clean but I wanted to be sure.

Re: My new way of doing windows

I love clean windows, why because I have found the easiest way to do it.  For the outside Windex has product that's for outside windows.  It's pad that has soap on it. They come with a mop head with a long poll. With the hose you wet down the window, wash, then rinse. Done beautiful clean window.  I can wash 6 windows with 1 pad. Inside I use Invisible  Glass. Spray wipe of with those white cotton shambray towels they sold here done. Yes I love to clean windows.
