The Best Window Washers
• Certain tools such as a chamois cloth are best used for window
washing to scrub the dirt and grime away, followed by the use of
cheesecloth for buffing and shining the glass. Other tools needed to
clean the glass are water and a squeegee—the squeegee is a cloth
covered tool with a handle that can be used to scrub difficult parts of
the glass. Certain chemicals can be added to the window washing
solution, such as dish soap and glass cleaner to Trisodium Phosphate
and etching salt. When the weather gets to sub-freezing
temperatures, there needs to be another chemical that is added to
prevent the liquid from freezing on the glass before it can be wiped
off.
• When cleaning windows that are several feet above ground, to avoid
using a ladder, the use of a “water-fed” pole can be used to spray
water jets and cleaner on the glass and then spray clean water on to
rinse the chemicals away. These poles can be fed from water tanks
that are on a truck; or they can be sourced from the local water
outlet.
