For many housewives, washing windows is a task that they would be happy to shift onto someone else's shoulders.

However, after you learn how to wash window panes without leaving even a hint of streaks on them, you will probably reconsider your attitude towards this process.

The main "ingredient" you will need is old tights, not necessarily whole ones.

And one more small detail – to make the windows sparkle, you should stock up on a slice of lemon.

So, when the preparation stage is complete, you can begin the actual process of washing windows.

Fill a bucket with 4-5 liters of water and throw in a lemon – this way you can neutralize the lime in the water with the help of acid, thus protecting the windows from streaks.

Now dip a microfiber or linen cloth into the water, wring it out and wash the dirt off the glass. All that's left is to scrape off the drops with a special scraper, and then go over the glass with a nylon stocking pulled over your hand.

It is thanks to the thin nylon threads that you will be able to get rid of the remains of complex stains.
