Cleaning Hack: How to Have Spotless Windows for Months

by Blessed Beyond Crazy

Spotless Windows usually do not last very long… until now!

I have been blessed with a husband who is a perfectionist. I am not a perfectionist.

One way this has really been benefited me is that my husband, Seth, notices dirty windows. Me… yeah, not so much. So once or twice a year my wonderful, perfectionist of a husband drags out the ladder and cleans the outside of our windows. (I clean the bathroom once a week so I’ll call that even!)

This spring he cleaned the windows a little differently. Isn’t it funny how men can think of things so differently? I would never have thought to clean a window with anything other than a window cleaner. But Seth values productivity and was trying to make our clean windows last longer than the first rain storm.

He used Rain-X 2-In-1 Glass Cleaner Plus Rain Repellent on our living room and dining room windows. But he cleaned the bedroom windows with normal window cleaner.

Update: A lot of people have been asking in the comments for more details on the actual cleaning process. This product is a 2-in-1 cleaner and repellent. There is no need to clean the window before using this product. This product and some paper towels are literally all you need. Spray the Rain-X on the window then wipe off with a towel. Done.

It’s so simple! It’s so obvious! I would never have thought of this myself!

Check out what our windows look like today–3 months later! Yeah! The last time these windows were cleaned was in April!

I know a picture of a window doesn’t really show how clean it is but trust me these windows are spotless! Plus, last night we got 3 inches of rain. It has stormed every day this past week and now we are under a flood advisory! It has been crazy how much rain we have had this past month! But that really proves how well this Rain-X can work–not only your vehicles but also on your home windows and even on your shower doors!

These windows are also facing West, which is the direction all the weather comes from.

Oh, and the windows that were cleaned the normal way–not with Rain-X– they are covered in water spots.

FYI: Rain-X is NOT sponsoring this post! We received our can of Rain-X as a Christmas gift with a bunch of other car cleaning things from a family member. Seth just got this idea one day that it would work on house windows to keep them spotless and it did work! We have not tried other brands or products of Rain-X, but if you do would you please let me know how they work!

I really liked your tip to buy a hydrophobic chemical to spray onto your windows so that you will not have any water sticking which will prevent hard water. I had to replace my window recently after a rock broke it. I will be sure to try and use one of these chemicals on my new window so that it will stay clean for longer periods of time.

    U were wondering how to keep flies off ur windows. Don't know if this will work but I read somewhere that flies don't like the smell of pinesol. Get a spray bottle with pinesol in it and spray around the windows.

    VODKA! Pour some cheap vodka in a zip lock type bag, leaving it un-zipped and hang from your eves. Flies hate the smell of vodka and will stay away. It's cheap and lasts for months. Then get some better quality vodka, make a nice cocktail and enjoy your fly less yard.

  window hotels that are covered by white card board sticks in corner work great. But I also know a penny or two in a sandwich bag of water hung up keeps flies away from where ever you want.

I live on a gravel road, there is a mechanic who lives at the end of the road so there is quite a bit of traffic. I'm curious if anyone else who lives on gravel has tried this and if so how well did it work. I have serious dust allergies ( I know... Why do I live on gravel? It's a tiny Town and it's just home.) the less often I have to clean the dust up the better.

  Well, it depends on how many windows you have. We only have about 8 sets of windows so we can use 1 can two or three times. If you use a window cleaner first and then apply the Rain-X you won't need to use as much of the Rain-X and it would last longer.

  In looking for a natural spider repellent, I discovered that all spiders have their taste buds on the tips of their legs. There are certain natural oils they hate, including citrus, lavender, peppermint, citronella, cinnamon, tea tree and cloves. This natural spider deterrent does wonders to combat an arachnid invasion, and with repeated use will help repel spiders year round: • Add up to 5 drops of essential oil (lemon is my favorite and spiders detest it) and up to 5 drops of dish washing liquid to 1 qt. of water. Pour the mixture into a spray bottle and shake well. • Spray the mixture on cobwebs, around doors and windows, around the lawn and garden and on any surfaces where spiders lurk. In addition to having a pleasant aroma, this mixture is nontoxic. • Oils may stain or cause spots, so be sure to test the mixture on a small section of carpet or upholstery before spraying an entire surface. • Reapply the spray once a week during peak "spider seasons." Natural spider repellents have to be applied more often than pesticides, but they are safer for to use in your home and have a pleasant smell. Pots of mint and lavender inside your home on a sunny windowsill will also help deter indoor spiders. Or you can dust your window sills and furniture weekly with a lemon-scented cleaner to help deter spiders. Last, but certainly not least, you can stop a household spider infestation through simple, nonchemical means. Use a vacuum cleaner to suck up spiders and cobwebs. Seal cracks in the foundation and close gaps in windows or beneath doorways to deny spiders access to your homes. Spiders thrive in dark, cluttered places, so keep stacks of debris, woodpiles and thick plant growth away from the sides of the house. The fewer places spiders can easily inhabit, the more effectively they can be repelled. RESEARCH #2: ww.naturallivingideas.com - 8 Natural Ways To Keep Spiders Out Of Your Home MINT THEM OUT - Did you know that spiders HATE peppermint? Most people don’t! An easy way to keep spiders from invading your space is to fill a spray bottle with peppermint essential oil (which you can buy from here on Amazon) and water, and then spray it around your home. Plus, your home will smell great!! Use Vinegar - White vinegar has about five trillion uses around the house (look it up!), and repelling spiders is one of them! Repelling spiders with vinegar is much like repelling them with peppermint oil, in that you fill a spray bottle with vinegar and water, and spray all the cracks and crevices around your home. Enlist The Help Of A Furry Friend - Cats are a great spider deterrent! Four legged furry friends can be great hunters and will definitely not let a spider crawl across the floor without going on the prowl and taking care of business! Don’t Let Them In - A great way to keep spiders out of your home is to never let them in in the first place! Make sure the exterior of your home is free from leaves, grass clippings, wood piles, or any other notorious spider hangouts. You can also check all door openings and windowsills to make sure there isn’t room for spiders to get in that way,and apply caulk when needed. Citrus Does The Trick - It’s common knowledge that spiders hate all things citrus. Rubbing citrus peels on areas where spiders are known to frequent, like baseboards, windowsills and bookshelves, is a great way to keep them from coming around. Even using lemon scented furniture polish can drive spiders away! Let Cedar Do The Work - Cedar can be a great deterrent for spiders. You can use cedar mulch outside around the perimeter of your home to try to keep spiders from ever getting inside. If you have access to a cedar chest or cedar hangers to use in your closet, that is a good choice as well. Using cedar blocks or shavings inside closets, cupboards or drawers can make them think twice about hanging out in there too! Chestnuts - Yes, you read that right, chestnuts! They have been known to drive away spiders, so placing a few in your windowsills or along your baseboards can keep spiders from hanging out there. Many people also believe that the same thing can be done with an osage orange (also known as a hedgeapple) You can keep chestnuts and hedgeapples in the house for a long time before they go bad, so it’s worth giving it a shot! Tobacco - It sounds weird, but spiders hate tobacco just about as much as they hate lemons and chestnuts! You can sprinkle small pieces of tobacco where spiders are troublesome, or you can soak tobacco in water and then spray the mixture all around. However, tobacco is pretty expensive these days, so you can likely find a more affordable fix for keeping spiders at bay!

I've waxed my windows for over 25 years! Not only does the water bead up and roll right off, the dirt doesn't stick to the glass so the windows are much easier to clean the next time. I Used regular Rain-x at first but the past 5-6 years have used a spray silicone car wax. I've not seen the Rain-x you have pictured but will be on the lookout for it.

I have been using RainX for years . The idea also came from my husband. He had a 1938 Ford and was having trouble finding wiper blades and wanted to use the car no matter if there was a chance of rain. After many hours of research he came up with Rain X. Worked like a charm on the windshield, house windows and shower doors. Another tip is I also use RainX windshield washer fluid to clean the outside windows when it is still freezing cold out. Doesn't freeze up on the glass. For some reason after taking the Christmas decorations down I always want to clean the windows. Crazy I know. LOL

It may not be hard water deposits. Acid rain can also leave marks on a car's finish. Go to the auto parts store and get some compounding. Apply it to the paint following the directions and it should remove the marks. Or you can take your car to be detailed and they will remove it for you. Doing it yourself will be much cheaper so you might want to try that first.

↩ ∞
Erin April 16, 2016, 9:41 pm

Okay, this is a bit off topic, but related. For a really long time, I had to park my car outside where a sprinkler regularly sprayed on it. We have REALLY hard water where I live, so there are deposits on the surface of my car. Does anyone have any suggestions to get it off without doing any more damage to the finish than the deposits would have done? I know vinegar cuts the calcium, and certainly CLR, but I'm afraid to use anything that might mar the finish.

Thanks for this idea! Gonna give it a try this coming week on my Gram's house that I am cleaning out ever so slowly (it's not in same state I reside in after all). Washed her windows 2 visits ago, but noticed last visit that they were spotted all up already. It is FL so know it'll be tested by rains.

I've used car wash containing wax for the shower stall and glass doors for many years now. It cleans at the same time as it protects, saving a step, and it keeps the shower and glass doors beautifully clean and spot free. If Rain-X contains wax it sounds similar to the car wash, but you have to clean first before applying. Is there is any other advantage to Rain-X over what I am using now, or should I just keep using my method?

↩ ∞

  We did not clean the window before applying the Rain-X. The product we used was a 2-1 so it cleaned and prevents future water spots.

Thanks so much for this post. I found a different recipe on Pinterest using a woolmix + water recipe that worked well on outside windows but didn't remove the many years (yes, embarrassed to admit is has been several years since I cleaned outside windows). So, I added a big squeeze of rain-x extreme clean to the same woolmix/water bucket and did the windows again. Voila! Really clean windows :) I am really very grateful for your post (and the woolmix poster) for my now clean windows. Seriously, my house looks like I've just had a skylight installed - so much more light.

    Hi Delena - I use about a cap full of woolmix to a about half a bucket of water. Make sure there is NO fabric softener in the woolmix - it causes hazing. I also now add a squirt of rain-x to the bucket. Cheers

    There is a product called Wet and Forget. I order it from Amazon. We live on a lake, and the northwest side of the house gets green algae. This product is amazing. You only apply it about every 6 months, and it reactivates when it rains. I also use the shower version once a week, and I rarely need to scrub. Will try the Rain-X on my Windows, however.

I use the Rain X wiper fluid - the pink stuff. And I love it! One day, I was comparing it's label with another brand, and something clicked - if it repels rain & snow, why not put some in a spray bottle in the winter, too defrost my windows, when they're iced up & I need to drive. Guess what! Works like a charm! So, while everyone else is outside, scraping their windows & windshield, I start the car, like they do, then grab my spray bottle & give all the windows a good spray, then get back in the car, where is warming up. In less time than it takes to do a good scraping job, I'm on my way, with clear windows, all around, & I'm warm & dry. In the Chicago area, that's something!

If you've never used Rain-X on your car, you need to try it. I live in south Florida where rain can be blinding. With Rain-X, I rarely have to even use my wipers because I can see so well, and the amount that it improves visibility is unbelievable. I don't like the 2 in 1 for car windshields as much as the Original, so this gives me a use for that bottle now! Thanks for sharing!

    The best way to clean your windows is to put one, just one, drop of Dawn detergent in a spray bottle of water. Shake it up just a little to mix it and spray and wipe clean. I learned this from a maid that took care of cleaning condos. It gets glass so clean without spots or streaks. Then use the rain x treatment, which I'm going to try.

      Hi Judy, Hey, thanks for the tip on using a drop of Dawn in a spray bottle. When I was growing up my Mom would wash windows with a little vinegar in warm water, (this would cut the scum) then wipe with a soft rag, spray with window cleaner, dry with a cloth again. The final step was to wipe the glass with a crumpled up newspaper to get all the streaks. We didn't have the Rain X back then or I'm sure she would have used it. Thanks for stopping by and leaving us a note. Have a great day! Linda

I used a product like this on my car windows. For months I didn't even need to use my window wipers when it rained. Then after a few months, the windows got dirty. Really dirty. And cleaning that stuff off....let's just say I had to pour coke on it to get it off. IMHO, it isn't worth it. But I'm hoping this product has improved since I tried this last.

  Wow, that's weird. We have used Rain-X on our car windows for years and years and never had a problem. Did you use an off brand? Maybe the brand has something to do with it...?

  We had the same problem with using RainX it works great but after a while it seems to build up like wax on floors and is hard to get off of the wind shield. Please keep us updated on how this comes out. Thanks

I'm curious. Why didn't he use the Rain-X on the rest of the windows?

  We weren't sure it would work. Next time he probably will. This was a trial period. It was also a good comparison for us to see just how well Rain X did work compared to the windows that didn't have it.

I use Rain X on our glass bathroom sinks - It keeps the water marks down and with a quick wipe they are bright and shiny. Never thought about using Rain X on the windows but will give it a try. Thanks!

We love Rain-X! My husband is a firefighter and a total OCD perfectionist too. Annoying, until he comes up with stuff like your husband did. We are avid boaters, every time we take the boat out of the lake, we wipe it down with Rain-X. Much like your result, it is amazing!!

What a great idea! Rain-X was recommended to us from the contractors that installed our new shower and it really works! We have very hard water. I also use it on my windshield; the wipers love it! :) Now I'm going to use it on my windows! Thanks for sharing!

RainX will leave a film on windshields that you may periodically have to clean off. After years of doing that, my husband started adding it to the windshield washer fluid in the car. Whenever you use the windshield washer you get a little rainx.....you never have to strip it off! Yay...
