When using a homemade window and glass cleaner, use up and down strokes on one side of the glass and side to side strokes on the other to tell which side requires extra polishing

No-Streak Glass Cleaner

1/4 cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 cups warm water

Mix the ingredients and apply with a sponge or pour into spray bottle and spray on. Wipe dry with crumpled newspaper, buff to a shine. (Use crumpled newspaper instead of paper towels for lint-free results.

Magic Mirror Cleaner

1/4 cup dawn
1 cup alcohol
1 cup ammonia

Mix the ingredients and apply with a sponge or pour into spray bottle and spray on. Wipe dry with crumpled newspaper, buff to a shine. (Use crumpled newspaper instead of paper towels for lint-free results.

Note: One word of warning about newspaper: while newspaper does leave glass lint-free with a dirt- resistant film, persons with sensitivities to fumes from newsprint may wish to avoid the use of newspaper as a cleaning tool.

Window Washer

1/3 tsp liquid Castile or other liquid vegetable based soap
3 tbsp cider vinegar or white vinegar
2 cups water.
Mix vinegar and water in spray bottle. Add soap. Mix and use.

Glass and Window Sparkler

1 cup White Vinegar
10-15 drops of Lemon Essential Oil
Water
Mix vinegar and water in spray bottle. Add essential oil, Shake and use.

Note: If you are looking for high-quality therapeutic grade essential oils, I highly recommend Young Living. I am simply in love with their products, they are a part of nearly every facet of my life.

Vinegar. Wash windows or glass with a mixture of equal pans of white vinegar and warm water. Dry with a soft cloth. Leaves windows and glass streak-less. To remove those stubborn hard water sprinkler spots and streaks, use undiluted vinegar. Costs about 7 cents a gallon

Borax or Washing Soda. Two tablespoons of borax or washing soda mixed into 3 cups water makes a good window and glass cleaner. Apply to surface and wipe dry.

Lemon Juice. Mix 1 tablespoon lemon juice in 1 quart water. Apply to windows and glass and wipe dry.

Baking Soda. To clean cut glass, sprinkle baking soda on a damp rag and clean glass. Rinse with clean water and polish with a soft cloth.

Toothpaste
For scratches on widows and glass use toothpaste. Rub a little toothpaste into the scratch. Polish with a soft cloth.

Corn Starch: Mix 1/2 cup cornstarch with 2 quarts warm water. Apply with sponge then wipe with absorbent cloth or towel. Do not wash windows or glass when sun is on them or if they are warm. This causes the solution to dry too quickly creating unwanted streaks.

Dry Mustard and Vinegar. Mix 1 pan dry mustard and 1 pan white vinegar into a paste. Apply paste to the scratch. Polish with a soft cloth. AVOID EYE CONTACT; DRY MUSTARD CAN BE DAMAGING TO THE CORNEA.

Lemon Juice: A great smelling window and glass cleaner is a mixture of 1/2 cup lemon juice and 2 cups water in a spray bottle.

Rubbing Alcohol: Rubbing alcohol is effective in place of glass cleaner. It is an excellent disinfectant. Sponge on and allow to dry. Use in a well-ventilated area and wear gloves.
