Washing Phase

• 1). Wrap one of the clean cloths around the head of the broom, tying the ends together to ensure that it will not fall or shift out of position. If you have particularly high windows, tie or tape one broomstick to another to act as an extension. You can also buy extension poles for this type of work if desired.
  
  
• 2). Brush any dust, dirt, spider webs, etc. from the window surface and the corners.
  
  
• 3). Fill the bucket with soap and water. Use hot water if you prefer, as it cleans better. Shake or brush any dirt or dust off of the cloth-covered broom head (a mop can also serve) and dip it into the soapy water.
  
  
• 4). Wash any salty, ocean residue or remaining dirt off of the window surface. When finished, unwrap the cloth from the broom head and set it aside.
  
  

Squeegee Phase

• 1). Wrap a clean cloth around the head of the broom or mop, once again. Empty the bucket of the soapy water and rinse. Then, fill the bucket with diluted glass cleaner (glass cleaner and water).
  
  
• 2). Dip the broom head (covered with the still clean, unused cloth) into the diluted glass cleaner and wash the window again.
  
  
• 3). Take the squeegee (with extension if necessary) and, starting at the top section of the window, make a steady horizontal swipe across the top.
  
  
• 4). Bring the squeegee head down to you and wipe the blade clean and dry it with the last clean cloth. Then, starting at the left in the dry area you created with the first swipe, draw the squeegee down to the base of the window in smooth, vertical strokes. Continue from left to right until most of the window is done and then finish with one more horizontal stroke across the bottom.
  
  
• 5). Use a clean corner of the last cloth to wipe away any remaining glass cleaning liquid from the corner of the window.
