How to Clean Your Car's Windows

Windows of a car are very crucial while driving. It is through the window that you see the vehicle that is approaching. Through the same windows, a driver is able to view what is behind him using the side mirrors.


Dirty windows can cause unclear vision which can be risky while driving. This is because the driver will have to strain while driving to see the approaching vehicle or the one behind his car. This will lower his concentration on driving which can lead to his car being involved in a crash.


Windows of a car are among the most sensitive parts during car washing. Although the entire car cleaning exercise can be done by a combination of all family members, caution should be taken while cleaning a car's windows. It can be tedious but it is very important.


It is important to always ensure that while doing any cleaning of your car, the car is parked under a shade. This will reduce the chances of some parts of the car drying before you wipe them with a microfiber towel. This will leave some droplet marks on your car making it appear like it was not cleaned keenly.


The following steps can be followed while cleaning your car's windows;

i) Find appropriate glass cleaner for your car. This is important as the cleaner chosen should not scratch the car's widows. The most appropriate is a microfiber cleaner. Also, find citric acid, mechanical cleaner from microfiber or alcohol.
ii) It is important that you realize some glass cleaners such as ammonia based cleaners harm some surfaces of the car including rubber, vinyl and leather. Therefore, while cleaning your car you should be very cautious with the way you handle the cleaners.
iii) Avoid having the interior parts of your car over sprayed by ensuring you spray one side of a microfiber towel using the cleaner.
iv) Start by cleaning the windows of the two main doors. Slightly, roll the windows down and clean their top. Roll them up and spray cleaner to the rest of the surface. Dry them with a microfiber towel.
v) Ensure you clean their corners, as this is where you are likely to find smears and streaks. Most people fail to consider this most of the times they clean their car's windows. As a result, this part develops some rusty look.
vi) Move on to clean the windshield. This should be done while seating at the passenger seat. Doing it while seated at the driver’s seat is not efficient due to obstruction by the steering wheel. This may lead to improper cleaning which will not give the desired final results.
vii) Clean the rear window using your hand's backside. Ensuring you get into the corners guide the microfiber towel across the entire window. This will give the windows a clear and clean appearance.

It is important that you ensure the windows are dry after cleaning. This is important because if they are not, water droplets will dry on their surfaces making them look as if they have never been cleaned.
