To-Do #3: Clean Glass on Windows and Doors

Spring pollen and rain can make quite a mess of your windows and doors, so take some time this spring to clean window and door glass. It’s best to tackle this chore on a cloudy day when the glass is less likely to streak.

Glass cleaning tips:

    1. Fill a spray bottle with a solution of one part white vinegar to 10 parts water (1½ cups per gallon).
    1. Spray the solution on the glass and wipe clean with a fresh microfiber cloth or balled-up newspapers.
  1. If the glass is really grimy, repeat the process. Make sure the final polish is always done with a clean cloth or dry papers to keep from spreading more dirt on the glass.
