I can't wait until the weather finally gets warmer and I can wash the windows. I think that when I look outside now and the windows aren't crystal clear it makes the whole house look smudged! LOL...I purchased the Norwex rags and love cleaning my windows with the micro fiber clothes. Sometimes when you do the windows you have to touch them to make sure there is glass in them. I recently also got a free one from Shell for filling up with gas. They are wonderful rags to clean with! Do you have any of the micro fiber rags for cleaning? And what do you think of them?

I can't wait to start cleaning my windows. The winter does a job on them with the snow and rain. I've been trying to keep up with the inside but it hasn't done much good. I usually just use vinegar and newspapers to clean windows and that does an awesome job...and is very cheap.

I dont think I have ever gone out and cleaned the outside of all my windows. This is something I plan to do soon. My windows are fairly clean but looking like they are a bit dirty. I think I will clean them and they will look dirty again the next day but at least I will know that it is a few days and not years worth of dirt.

I absolutely Despise cleaning windows. I get what you mean about the smudges, and I have a wonderful view that would be blurred by dirty windows. But still, I hate it. I don't know why, it's not that hard. I would rather clean the toilet, or wash dishes, or do laundry even- which is second on my list of hated chores. I am looking forward to warmer weather so I can open the windows, not to clean them!

I've never seen micro fiber rags. Can they be bought at a regular grocery store or Walmart? I use papertowels and usually the windows are streaked when finished. I tried vinegar but didn't like it. Years ago my mother use to use vinegar with newspaper to clean the windows. We have the drop down windows for easier cleaning and I can't wait to get at them when it warms up.

I've never used those rags, but I am anxious to get my windows cleaned too! We have an old house, so we have to put up storm windows in the winter. We always wash the storms and the windows when we put them up, but I'm always anxious to take them down in the Spring and wash the windows again!
There's just something about a house feeling even more clean when the windows are clear!
