Glass Care

Washing Glass

• The regular washing and drying of glass and window frames is required to ensure long term durability. In urban areas washing should be every 3 to 6 months.
• When washing, soak the glass surface with warm water and mild soap detergent solution to loosen dirt and debris or proprietary glass cleaners. Start cleaning at the top of the building and continue to lower levels.
• After washing, rinse with clean water and then dry the glass using a clean grit-free squeegee, cloth or paper towel and remember, 'Wet glass is dirty glass.'
• All water and cleaning solution residue should be dried from the window gaskets, sealants and frames to prevent water spots.
• Avoid cleaning tinted and reflective glass surfaces in direct sunlight
• Products such as Nano can be applied to create glass that is self cleaning. We have this available through Double Glazing Retrofit.
