Lightbulb My Girlfriends Window Cleaning Technique!

Ok, so I was cleaning my car today and my girlfriend said let me clean your windows. I was like uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ummmmmmmmmmm ok lol. Anyways I gotta say they turned out real nice. She added a little bit of water and and large amount of vinegar into a bucket. Just have it so that you can smell the vinegar through the water. There was only about an inch at the bottom of the bucket.
Get what I call a J cloth, (any cloth will do) and get some newspaper and scrunch em up into balls. Not to tight. Do one window at a time. Wipe it down with the vinegar and then use the newspaper to wipe away the vinegar. Comes out crystal clear. You can use the same technique on your side mirrors and any chrome you have, Although I would suggest using a dry cloth for the chrome.

Yes that has been a solution for windows for years. It really works well. Dont use apple cider vinegar though.

When I read the topic for some reason the movie "Cool Hand Luke" popped into my mind.. I'm sure you all remember that movie.

I've never tried the vinegar but the newspaper does a magnificent job as the ink has a good effect on drying the window and getting rid on any smudges.

Done this before. Been drying my windows w/ newspapers for years.

Also you can take vinegar baths for yourself. Helps break up lactic acid, I take about one a week to give the muscles a break from all the running I do.

Sounds like a plan, but next time try to describe her and what she was wearing. I keep trying to get my wife to wash the car in a t-shirt only . No luck here.
