Step 5: Window and Gloss Surface Cleaner

IMG_1474.jpg

This one is easy, though a little smelly - but don't worry, the smell goes away pretty quickly and you'll have nice clean windows!

What you'll need:
  • small spray bottle
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup vinegar
  • squirt of castile soap (this is optional, but helps reduce streaks)
Pour the water and vinegar in the bottle, and add a tiny squirt of the castile soap. Shake it up and you're ready to clean!

Many people recommend using newspaper to clean your windows, but as I don't get it delivered, I use flour sack towels or old cut up tshirts. This solution takes a little longer to dry than your typical glass cleaner, but don't worry! It'll look very nice when totally dry.

You can also use this solution to clean appliances and countertops. :)

You can order castile soap easily from Amazon.com for $5-$10 =)

There is any substitute for the castile soap to make it? I can't easily find it where I live in... :/
