Re: Household

When cleaning windows clean the inside with vertical strokes and the outside with horizontal strokes..... that way you will know whether the streaky bit is on the inside or the outside......and I use methylated spirits

Re: Household

Of you've got a particularly greasy window (kids hands are good at this) it may take a couple of goes before you get it clean properly. Grease streaks, even if you think you've got it all off. I hate cleaning mirrors and windows.

Went to Asda The young lady stacking the shelves said they didn't sell kids hands so have not been able to try your tip Willow.

Would it work just as well with a kitten & some windowlene? (I did try a fully grown cat once but found it too large to get right into the corners).

Have you ever heard the horrible noise when a cats claw slides down glass? It's like chalk on a blackboard terrible!
