Thanks man! I just got hired to wash windows on a multi million dollar property in DTC Denver, Colorado. This just gave me the confidence to tackle this job today👍🏻
Props to you there's nothing like watching a human that knows what the hell they're doing the "right " way. Only thing is my wife watched your video and now I have to do it your way... You must make a good living doing this !! Rock on and thanks for sharing your skills!!
What about the boarders of the windows? When a window hasn't been cleaned in ages, there is all sorts of gunk caked on there. Is there a method you use? Or just scrub it with the strip washer?
Scrub hard and if not coming off something like Spray 9 may help if the window frames are vinyl. If you are going to use that test a small area first to make sure it will not stain or damage but in almost all cases it is safe.
Thanks so much for this! Appreciate that you got right to the point of this video, and demonstrated everything clearly and quickly. Super helpful, and tips I didn't know!
Thanks for the help. I got hired to clean windows today and they came out great thanks to your tips! I need practice but the customer said she never saw her window that clean before. Thanks again!
This is just what I needed, thank you so much - we just had hurricane replacement windows installed and I want to keep them looking good. The new windows are so beautiful and I needed advice on how to keep them that way - appreciate your clear, concise instructions!
Great to the point vid, with no bs music in the background. Now if you could please tell us the secret weapon....what product do you use to clean the window and not leave streaks? I like the blue bottle foamy stuff at Home Dep oT. Thx again!
After MANY years of cleaning windows traditionally I now clean them using water fed pole, but have to say this is a great vid for those who want to clean windows with a squeegee. Bravo!
Great video. Very informative. Excellent teacher. Thank God this isn't one of those robotic computerized talking videos. Listening to a real man explain how to clean windows- actually made me want to go clean some windows. Btw, where do I get one of those window washing kits?
If you want to be extra careful, push the window scrapper in one direction only to avoid drawing back any debris that could scratch the window. Never use a metal putty knife on a window; use it for window screen detachment. Use a plastic putty knife instead for other stuck stuff on glass.
I saw a window cleaner today. I was stunned. He only used one hand to operate both squeegee and mop at the same time. He was up the ladder, cleaned a large window, using a zigzag motion, wiped the ledge with his cloth, and was down again in less than 10 seconds. I kid you not. I went up to take a look at the window and it was spotless and shiny. No dribbles or streaks or marks from the rubber in sight. The guy was window ninja.
@@robertcarlson9052 So you get mad at people with "selective" language skills, but yet you do the same thing? Yeah, get back to washing windows you dumbass.
This summer I am looking to have something to make money on the side with little to no experience and costs. I have looked into window cleaning, and videos like this are helping a lot, so thank you!
We are English window cleaners and we do it differently and 10 times quicker. We would never use a mangy old towel we use micro fibre cloths. What the hell is the putty knife used for. We also would never just go up and down or side to side, that’s what a beginner would do. We go in all different directions never taking the rubber blade of the glass until the whole window is finished. But all that was back in the day. We mostly use the water fed pole with hot water coming out and you could clean that entire window, frame, and sill in 30 seconds. But I have heard that in the states you charge an absolute fortune to clean windows over here everyone has them done once every 28 days. Anyway best of luck in the future.
Use Dawn dish washing soap with warm water to dip your mop in to clean the windows, use this dude's method.Dawn is power full , use just a few drops in a bucket.
1. Whisk the window: Use your wet towel and wipe off cobwebs off of the frame and the outside of the window. 2. Scrub the window: Use strip washer and see if there is anything that needs extra scrubbing. Scrub off extra debris with the end of the strip washer. You may use the paint scraper as needed but only use it if the window is wet. Make sure to close your scraper and put it away. 3. Wash the wi dow: Wash the window by starting with the borders and corners. Then wash the center. 4. Wipe the window: 5. Squeegie the window: 6. Dry the window: clean up dribbles: 7. Final examination:
No you dont want to put your wet squeegee on your dry towel, you want your dry towel completely dry. I own a window cleaning business in Colorado and I rarely ever use a towel to clean my squeegee... I usually wet the window then tap my squeegee on the glass to knock off any debris caught on the squeegee.
My coworker asked me a while ago if I could clean windows. I said yes. I can't clean windows. I have to clean the window front in 30 minutes. This is saving me.
What do you think about different kinds of style and techniques and are you willing to try them all out? You gotta be open to what suits the job your doing and be cognizant of being efficient with a sense of purpose.
I'm not sure why you need to wipe two edges of the soapy window before you use the squeegee. You say it's to give the rubber some grip. I'm confused...
I use two buckets of water for 30 windows...basement ones and walk in basement patio is the worst.Put warm water,vinegar and dash of Dawn dish soap.Other bucket clean water.Use microfiber clothes, dry/wet squeegee and ladder.With my mom's help,we were done in 4 hours inside/out.Had dog saliva/smooch on bottom inside of the patio door🤣🤣🤣and that's how I do it because it's a lot of windows,window seals,mud and spiders,cobwebs...nuhhh I need my buckets 🪣 with water dude...
I ll be right back comment section friends, I have to go to the ER room and get a few stretches. I forgot to close my scraper blade. I knew I should of just did it like I have always done it. Grabbed a couple of my wife's hand towels from the kitchen. I wet one of them and go clean the windows. Happy wife , happy life

What a great teacher. It's nice to know that there are still people that work with integrity. Quality over speed:) Thank you so much
Realizing I’m watching this and at the same time realizing I’m getting old.
Luke Menendez 😅😂😂😂😂😂
Same!
Just shut up, you’re depressing me
Don’t know if I should laugh or cry at the truth of this comment
May I ask you if it's just for the cleaning method or for the cleaner's age?! 😮
Excellent advice, but what do you use as your washing solution?
Dawn dish soap that's all

I like that you mentioned all the tools you need TY
I love the passion..........great job. I hope your business is doing well 6 years later.
I use a brush on the frames and ledges to get rid of the cob webs etc, helps keep the cloths clean.
Very thorough. Great teacher.
Im just sitting here with my brother, both debating what a legend this guy is. What a boss. What a fucking pro. Big dingong. Even bigger heart.
you seem gay talkin about dingdongs

We use the pole and it saves so much
Spot on that. Everything I needed to know in minutes.
You are a gifted speaker...I'd be stammering on for 20 minutes and still have streaky windows.
"How To Clean A Window Quickly & Easily Like A Pro" Me: *wet rag*
Wow, what a skilled piece of instruction! Disregard the naysayers, you did a great job.
Simple and easy, well done mate!
my only question is what did you wash the windows with? is the brush wet?
This guy belongs on TV. Good video

I'm getting some sort of cathartic and comfortable feeling watching this and I can't explain it
Dang that's some serious skills
Thanks for this one! Now I am more of a window pro :)
This is an awesome video, very helpful. Thank you for posting it.

Much love, yall def helped my family business.
All great information but what do you use to wash the window with?
Thank you for posting this!
Great presentation.
Thank you. 👍🏻
have you ever tried steel wool ? works like a charm
Wouldn't steel wool scratch the windows? ? ? Just saying....
Luke is right. But he forgot to say use #0000 steel wool. go check out his videos. He does a great job explaining it .
I missed what you wash it with. Soapy water? Ammonia?
Don soap and water is what most cleaners use
Thanks RUclips reccomendations I mean without you I would never know how fascinating window washing is
Thank you!
Nice video
Great Video!
Exellent demo sir
Clean and glide works awesome
This summer I am looking to have something to make money on the side with little to no experience and costs. I have looked into window cleaning, and videos like this are helping a lot, so thank you!
One question . . . are you using some sort of cleaning solution? If so, what?
Just a few drops of simple dish soap and water
Use dawn dish soap. Blue is preferable. It's a degreaser and helps the squeegee glide easily.
@@aaronanders990 can I use a multi-purpose cleaner like Ajax as a substitute for dishwashing liquid?
@@comrade_dzayk I wouldn't. It might leave streaks. I use a smidgen of HG in my Karcher water spray bottle.
@@comrade_dzayk Bleach has been known to cause discoloration and skin peeling. I don't recommend it.
Right to the point!
Really old video but what the name of the tools bucket holder ? Can't find it
Thanks good video !!!!where I can find those tools ??
When you scrape only scrape in one direction not back and forth that will scratch the glass also recommended to use brand new razor blades
Great video! Thanks.

Also check for fabrication debris when scrapping otherwise you are going to scratch the glass!
What is a fabrication debris?
Just thank you!
Thx so much...
First residential today by your video...thx
Nice 👍
What did you wash it with or was it just water
I can now clean my windows like a pro and you certainly have explained it like a pro! Good job!
Glad it helped!
Now slap it! 😁👍🏻

How do you clean off spots from artillery fungus on windows?
Awesome video. Ive got a big ass window that i need to do daily
Thanks
I have a flim build out side 50 years old you only see it when the sun is on it at sun down
Master of glass
Are microfiber towels ok to use?
They are good to use as your wet towel and are very good absorbents.
nobody cleans a window like McBuckets son, I'm tellin ya
Steve Rowbotham There will never, and I mean ever, be another McBuckets
5 years later there’s lots of mcpuppets but only one mcbucket

wow, you just inspired me thanks dude!
What liquid cleaner?
Just curious, if I wipe my squeegee on my dry towel as in the video, will it mess up my detail work?
No you dont want to put your wet squeegee on your dry towel, you want your dry towel completely dry. I own a window cleaning business in Colorado and I rarely ever use a towel to clean my squeegee... I usually wet the window then tap my squeegee on the glass to knock off any debris caught on the squeegee.
@@robertjackson3462
I tap mine on my bucket
Use your wet towel.
Do you use soap and water or just water?

My coworker asked me a while ago if I could clean windows. I said yes. I can't clean windows. I have to clean the window front in 30 minutes. This is saving me.
What ere you washing it with
Thanks ~ Any ideas on how to clean the outside of a non tilting window that's high up from the inside ?
Rita Kvist put the bottom window up and lean out the window of you don't do the cleaning from the outside with a ladder and standoff
Extension poles.
Instructions unclear, threw a rock through the window
Same I stuck my arse in the window and now I’m being filed in court for sexual harassment
I hate when that happens.
Made my job easier ty!
It would be nice to know more about what you are using for a cleaning liquid. Is it plain water? Soap? Ammonia? Vinegar?
Just some liquid dish soap and water :)
Thanks
Great tutorial! And what kind of soap do you recommend?
Dawn dish soap in warm water 👍 try it out
What do you think about different kinds of style and techniques and are you willing to try them all out? You gotta be open to what suits the job your doing and be cognizant of being efficient with a sense of purpose.
good method, not my method but a good method non-the-less
How much should you charge to wash a window?
Great video! Good job!
When do you spray windex????? Why is this not mentioned
This makes me wish my husband was handy.
Now he can be 😁
I'm not sure why you need to wipe two edges of the soapy window before you use the squeegee. You say it's to give the rubber some grip. I'm confused...
kelv1969 to give a spot for the squeegee to start.
Do what works for you
thanks Eh
