Post by pagey on Sep 9^th, 2007, 8:58am

Hello all. Don't recall seeing this topic before, so here goes. What's the best thing to use to clean the windows inside and out?
Regards to all.

I use blue crystal in a squirty bottle with news paper. Best thing since sliced bread. Been using it for years. Can get it from all good wholesalers. ( The blue crystal that is)

I use bog standard household window cleaner - wipe on with a duster, wipe off with a micro-fibre cloth and then finish with window scrim (that's a coarse looking hessian type of cloth that completely eliminates smears - I heard that russian womens undies are made of this ;) )

Spit on it & use kitchen towel to wipe it off.....nothing like a bit of body acid to get that un-wanted film off ;D

Isopropyl alcohol (tape head/CD cleaning fluid) in a spray bottle is also good for cleaning a greasy screen ;)

I use Nilglass from my local motor factors, trouble is its not cheap and the wife keeps pinching it for the windows on the house. Highly recommend it though. john.n
