Clean

Share it with others!

Are you looking for mirror and window cleaning? Clean your windows and mirrors without chemicals and make them streak-free!

Are you looking for mirror and window cleaning? I have always dreaded cleaning windows and mirrors because they always seem to be streaky afterward.  I was also looking for a chemical-free way to clean them.  I found a super easy and Eco-friendly way to clean your windows and mirrors and make them streak-free!

My dad had bought these microfiber clothes from Amazon and fell in love with them and couldn’t wait to share them with me. He is always looking for the best ways to clean windows – both at his home and on the cars he works on at his body shop.

Moja Works Microfiber Glass Cleaning Cloths and you can find them on Amazon here

Before I start – this is not a sponsored post.  I purchased these and have been using them ever since.  This is my honest opinion.

What is the best way to clean windows without streaking?

You’ll also need a bucket of water.

1. Wipe window with damp microfiber cloth

First start with the green cloth (instructions are included with the clothes). Get it wet and then wring it out.

Wipe your window with the cloth.

2. Wipe the window with the dry microfiber cloth

Next use the blue cloth dry and wipe the window dry.

That’s all there is to it and I love that your windows will be streak free!

Other options for window cleaners:

  • Hire a cleaning service or professional window cleaning services, especially for exterior cleanings that might be hard to reach
  • A pressure washer can do a great job outside
  • Place some rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle and use paper towels to clean windows and mirrors.
  • Don’t forget to clean your window screens while cleaning those windows.
  • If you notice it is foggy between your glass panes, it might mean the seal is broken and it’s time for your residential windows to be replaced. many companies will offer a free estimate for this.
  • If your windows aren’t coming clean, it could be water spots, mineral deposits, or hard water stains on your glass and it has caused glass etching.
  • You can always clean your windows with soapy water just make sure to do an excellent job of rinsing them or the soap residue will leave behind a sticky residue and attract dirt.
  • You can use a glass cleaner for cleaning windows or mirrors
  • Don’t forget to clean out your window tracks.
  • You can clean your windows by adding a few tablespoons of white vinegar to a bucket of water.
  • Always use a clean microfiber cloth so you’re not pushing the dirt around and potentially scratching your glass.
  • If you do have hard water you can always use distilled water or purified water with a damp cloth or soft microfiber cloth to clean your windows
  • You can also make some homemade cleaning solutions and the best homemade window cleaner includes ammonia

    I prefer Kaywos cloths instead. You only need the one cloth and water. I can clean my sliding glass door in less than a minute with no streaks! I got mine locally at Craft Ware House in Washington and also bought some on Amazon. Works great on the inside of your cars windshild.

    I always throw a couple microfiber rags in every wash. When they come out of the spin cycle they are perfectly damp for cleaning glass, mirrors, everything! (No extra step needed) And great for buffing granite countertops to shine!!

    This sounds great, I usually use a vinegar/water mix but just water sounds even better.

    Hey Chas,

    Great tips, another method would to be using a squegee, a little more expensive, but will save you the elbow grease =)
