why when you wash your windows you get bugs go on them i'm sure they are thinking you've just cleaned the windows and i'm putting footprints all over them for you i've just cleaned mine inside and out and i've got tiny bugs on them where the flip are they coming from :ac39:

I hate it when I *think* my windows look nice and shiny only to then sit down and notice that they are still smeary

I agree with Bunny too - smears are a nightmare!

You have to clean windows? oops
But seriously, my "tip o' the day"
Vinegar in hot water, NO SOAP, then polish off with a clean dry cloth. Always a streak free finish. I used to do the mirrors in the pub like that, I was the only person who could get them so sparkly.

i use a glass cleaner spray, and wipe with newspaper. if not spray...the vinegar and water with newspaper is just as good...
i don't notice many bugs, just sticky fingerprints and builders dust!
