    Clean windows transform a home's appearance — both inside and out. They let in more natural light, improve curb appeal, and just make everything feel fresher. Here are professional tips for spotless windows.

    Choose the right day: Avoid cleaning windows in direct sunlight, as the solution dries too quickly and leaves streaks. Overcast days or early morning are ideal.

    Use the right solution: Mix equal parts white vinegar and water for a natural, streak-free cleaner. For stubborn grime, add a drop of dish soap. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners on tinted windows.

    The two-cloth method: Use a microfiber cloth dampened with solution to clean, then immediately buff dry with a second clean, dry microfiber cloth. Work in overlapping vertical strokes.

    Don't forget the details: Clean window tracks with a toothbrush and vacuum. Wipe down sills and frames. Remove and clean screens separately with soapy water.
