Clean window frames – Source: spm
It’s nice to have windows that are all clean and transparent. But if your window frames stay dirty, you’ve only done half the job. At the same time, following the pangs of winter, it is quite normal to end up with dull, gray and even yellowish frames. We can also understand that you often balk at the task, because this cleaning is particularly tedious. This area, unfortunately, cannot be treated with a sharp brush or a metal sponge, otherwise scratches will be almost inevitable. Not to mention the formation of micro-cracks that can accommodate more dirt. So how do you get out of this vicious circle, you ask? Thanks to this brilliant method you might not have thought of: a cleansing milk. These maintenance creams, available in supermarkets, are very useful for cleaning plastic surfaces. How to apply it? Simply pour the product onto the frames, then use an old toothbrush to scrub the surface thoroughly. Then simply wipe the frames with a dry cloth. And to eradicate the dirt that has become embedded in the little corners that are difficult to access, a simple cotton swab will be of great help to you. It wasn’t that complicated, was it?

It has the remarkable ability to remove the most stubborn stains (even traces of blood). We gladly use it to clean different surfaces at home.

Are your window frames wooded? You should know that they are usually made from specially selected dried wood. And thanks to its natural properties, wood has the advantage of resisting bad weather. Already in the factory, it benefits from a special finish via a preservative which harmonizes the colours. But you can’t skip cleaning. Because, although solid, wood is not indestructible! Maintaining your varnish is essential to keep your windows always in good condition.
