Whether it’s mirrors or windows, having clean glass is important to give a fresh and clean look to the whole house, better reflect light and let it enter in its fullness. However, cleaning windows is more complex than you think.
Usually we use specific products that, although effective, are loaded with toxic chemicals for our health and, sometimes, leave very annoying halos, especially when applied unevenly.
Fortunately, it is possible to clean windows and mirrors with natural ingredients that leave them perfectly clean and, above all, streak-free.
To make a natural window cleaner, mix 1 part white vinegar with 5 parts water and pour into a spray bottle.
Spray the DIY glass cleaner all over the mirror or window. Then, wipe with a microfiber cloth to make sure you scrub thoroughly.
Finally, use newspaper to dry the glass without running the risk of leaving stains or marks.
If the glass already has streaks or spots , pour a tablespoon of liquid dish soap into the spray bottle filled with water and spray it on the glass. Use a sponge to remove the spots and, in this case too, dry with newspaper.
Newspaper helps make the glass shinier. If you want to make the DIY cleaner even more effective, add the juice of one lemon to the water and vinegar solution.
Now that you know how to make streak-free window cleaner, apply it several times a month to keep your mirrors and windows sparkling clean.
