Glass can be a notoriously difficult surface to clean well, and there are a lot of theories and hacks for getting out streaks or marks. The big question, though, is whether you plan to do it using natural methods or chemical ones.
Plenty of people have come up with natural methods to clean glass surface such as glass shower screens, glass pool fence or balustrade, but is that really the best way to clean glass when we have so many new types of cleaners these days?
Let's take a look at what you should think about when it comes to making a decision.
While chemical cleaners are almost certainly going to be more convenient, because they work straight out of the bottle, there are more things to consider than just your windows. Because of the way they work, chemical cleaners can often contain substances that irritate the eyes and skin, which is something to be wary of if you have sensitive skin or children.
Pets can also react in unpredictable ways to chemicals that are harmless to humans, so if you have any vulnerable people or animals in your house, it may be a good idea to stay natural.
Another thing to think about when you're choosing glass cleaner is what type of mess you're trying to clean. While natural methods like vinegar and lemon juice can be great for cleaning minor dirt and grime, you may have more trouble with organic matter like bird droppings.
Chemical glass cleaners are often designed specially to get rid of tough stains like this and are manufactured with powerful enzymes which break down organic material and make it much easier to clean. So, if you're dealing with baked-on mud or other organic messes, chemical cleaners may be your best bet.
One of the biggest advantages of using natural cleaners is that they often cost a lot less than chemical ones, and you can make them at home using just a few household ingredients like vinegar, water and essential oils.
On the other hand, chemical products cost more and come in pretty limited supplies, while you can scale up your natural cleaner to provide more or less as much as you need. That said, while chemical cleaners are more expensive, they can often last longer, and act to prevent more dirt and grime from sticking for longer periods of time. Natural products need to be used more regularly to keep your glass clean.
