    It’s hard to get the silicone on camera after removing most of it, but it leaves a “smear” that needs further polishing to completely remove, Magic eraser and microfiber are perfect for the final step

    I accidentally put silicone over paint on glass so I used "Glass Cleaner" and scraped the silicone off and off went the paint. Now the glass is clean. Nice video.

    W gray this is just the right amount of editing, not too much but just enough to look quality asf

    The squeaking of that magic eraser almost sent me to the afterlife

    Hello bro, I have theese nasty silicone stains on used aquarium I bought. Nothing worked thus far, I tried Soudal silicone remover, it's absolute trash, tried different solvents like acetone and isopropyl, all trash. Will try this magic eraser and steel wool. Something got to work!

      Magic eraser is really good, can also try a solvent like Titan oil flow windowcleaner.com/products/titan-oil-flo-stain-remover?sca_ref=3020242.k17l3JaEgS

    In my demolition jobs I use a degreaser like Krud Cutter or Super Clean to dissolve the silicone, then scrape it off the surface. Then you can finish with the magic eraser.

    • @SteveOthewindowcleaner
      @SteveOthewindowcleaner  Год назад +1

      Be careful with Krud Cutter, it can etch glass. Had a customer spray over all there windows and damaged every window

      @@SteveOthewindowcleaner yikes. Yeah in that example it was tile so no foul spraying it on there. For glass you'd want to be more careful. I haven't come across silicone on glass, but have seen paint. Recently I used a few sprays of Super Clean on the mop to up the power of the soap a little. And it's not on the glass for long. If you saw the complete caking of spider poop and bug juice on those 45° windows, you'd understand...lol. You couldn't see out of them.

    Great channel, learnt so much. Why am I occassionally getting scratches marks with scraper even when window is wet

    • @SteveOthewindowcleaner
      @SteveOthewindowcleaner  Год назад

      It’s due to fabrication debris on the window, it can happen no matter what but typically the scratches are already there but after cleaning it makes the scratches standout

    Never mentioned what solution you used? Acetone? Lacquer thinner?

    I was going to do a construction clean up for a home builder, he said the windows had silicone on them i just said “yea ill prolly use steel wool on it” he flipped out “YOUR GONNA SCRATCH THE WINDOW, if you cant do the job let me know right now”. I looked at him and said “i guess i cant do your job” and left.. the hell with that guy

    You should cover if you have not.
    Windows with logos on it you clean them like normal but there is always water coming out from the logos in the windows is quite time consuming to clean the logos to make all the water come out then i clean the window but i have not find a better way

    How do you remove finger prints in the pores of the glass?

  • @stephentrepreneur
    @stephentrepreneur Год назад +1

    Yikes no, no steel wool. 3 passes with scraper should be enough with sufficient elbow grease. I regularly do builder's cleans where there is silicone, plaster, even concrete which is more difficult - and make them look like there is no glass. I wouldn't even use steel wool on a rental.
