Vinegar is the key to streak-free windows and shiny surfaces, but most use it wrong. Here’s the right way to use it

For windows, a squeegee can also be a valuable tool. After applying the vinegar solution with a spray bottle, use a squeegee to remove excess liquid and prevent streaks. Be sure to wipe the squeegee blade with a clean cloth after each pass to avoid transferring dirt back onto the window.

1. Begin by dusting the window surface with a dry microfiber cloth to remove loose dirt and debris.

2. Spray the vinegar and water solution onto the window, covering the entire surface evenly.

3. Use a clean microfiber cloth to wipe the window in a circular motion, loosening any dirt and grime.

4. For a streak-free finish, use a squeegee to remove the solution from the window, starting at the top and working your way down. Wipe the squeegee blade with a cloth after each pass.
