Before Cleaning

There are some safety precautions you must take before starting the cleaning process.

Avoid harsh chemicals like abrasive or acidic cleaners, as these can scratch or damage the glass, window frames, or seals.

Steps to Cleaning Your Double-Glazed Windows

  1. Remove dirt or debris from the windows using a dry cloth or brush.
  2. Apply the cleaning solution to the windows using a sponge. Make sure to cover the entire surface of the window.
