The criteria we used for choosing the best window cleaning solution

The cleaning perspective:
• Does it clean well all kinds of dirt?
  We come across all kinds of dirt there is, so this is a very important factor. This cleaning agent must dissolve it all: mechanical dirt particles, all kinds of grease, tar, stains, oily residues, fingerprints, pigeon droppings, insects, food, residues left by previous cleaning attempts.
• Does it leave any residue on the glass?
  All specifically designed for window cleaning solutions are pretty good at this one, including ours.
• Does it reduce drag?
  It is an important factor for crystal clean window cleaning. Crucial for squeegee to work its wonders. The less drag – the more effective the squeegee, the better the results.

The safety perspective

• Is it safe for the glass or for the glass coating used by some manufacturers?
  Unlike ammonia-based solutions, our agent is completely safe for glass and coating.
• Is it safe for window frames?
  The frames are made from various materials and the cleaning agent must be safe (non-corrosive at least) for a whole range of materials like vinyl, aluminum, metal, wood, composite materials, fiberglass. Our cleaning agent is completely safe for all these materials, if fact it can be used for cleaning all of these materials, which we do.
• Is it safe for upholstery?
  We believe it is a good practice to foresee what happens when our cleaning solution is spilled onto a carpet or piece of furniture. Again it is completely safe for upholstery and can even be used to clean it.
• Is it safe for people or other living beings? We work in all sorts of circumstances sometimes around small children and take very seriously the safety of our workers and customers and their pets. This solution is non-toxic, and unlike ammonia does not produce toxic fumes. It is rated at 0 on the Hazardous Material Identification Scale. Windex with ammonia is rated at 2.

The environment perspective

• Is it Bio degradable?
  Our window cleaning solution is readily degradable.
