Ever leave a car wash
dissatisfied? The metal has the shine, finesse, you can see your own reflection
on it like a mirror but yet there is something missing. The section under the
windshield wipers look grimy and you missed a smudge on one of the windows.
Metal is lifeless and cold, you either have a scratch or a smudge. The glass
however is intricate, it needs that personal touch. Without both, the car looks
like a half-finished item, cold flawless steel with dotted imperfections that
dull its beauty. For starters cleaning the windows from the outside is not
enough, more often than not, most of the uncleanliness comes from the inside.
According to many Richmond Hill Auto Glass workers,
the best way to get the perfect finish is to clean it at home. Just mop up the
metal with soap, water and the right fabric while paying particular attention
to the windows. Controlling your water use and using homemade cleaning agents
is better for the environment. You can use natural detergents and ordinary
kitchen ingredients to create a potent cleaning agent that will give you that
sparkle you desire. There are a couple of easy to use, homemade concoctions, to
give you crystal clear windows.
How to Get Smoke Stains Off Of
Auto Glass
Take
some distilled white vinegar and dilute it with about 25-30% warm water. I own
a luxury and I have a lot of friends who are heavy smokers and own their own
cars. They all smoke inside their vehicles. This remedy will work wonders on
smoke stains. If you are a smoker and almost all your friends are smokers,
someone will always have a lit cancer stick in the car. Over time this leaves a
sickly, yellowish-brown stain on the windows. This solution will peel those nasty
nicotine stains straight of the glass. Remember to add a touch of detergent to
the mixture to increase cleaning potency.
How to Remove Stubborn Window
Stains
The next potion is
a tried and tested classic. Take about 50% rubbing alcohol, 50% warm water, add
some ammonia and detergent and you have a homemade hammer. This will clean up
almost any kind of stain you could possibly have on the window. It is kind of
like grandma’s recipe. In the Richmond Hill
Auto Glass industry, there are a number of other
homemade cleaning agents you can use but there are also ways to make your brand
unique. If you are environmentally aware, use castile soap instead of detergent
in you mixtures, it is better for the environment. If you are using a vinegar
base you can really make your soap stand out. You can add scented essential
oils to your mixture. Essential oils with fragrance naturally bonds to the
vinegar molecules. Even after the smell of the vinegar has dulled the fragrance
from the oils remain. So you can save up a batch you made a couple of months
ago, it would still have the scent you chose. In addition the oils increase the
stain removal capabilities of your creation.
Extra Cleaning Tips
Unfortunately
there are downsides. If you are making cleaning agents with kitchen products,
most of the ingredients are organic, which means they disintegrate in sunlight.
If you are using such ingredients, try to clean the windows on a cloudy day or
at the edge of the garage, away from direct sunlight. Final tip, try to use old
newspapers instead of paper towels. It is pretty much the exact same thing.
