Used Windex for years.  Finally, I realized the result was a mess.  I had streaked, cloudy windows after all my effort.  Tried the first 'recipe' here and love it.  You don't mind cleaning windows so much, when the result is so great.

Thank you so much for this  homemade window cleaner!!! So happy with my windows.  Literally squeaky clean. They've never looked this good.

I have a question, do you use paper towels or microfiber towel? Or does one of these work better than the other?

This worked great! I used a microfiber cloth and my windows look so nice and clean. I won't need to buy window cleaner ever again.

I really liked this because not only was it effective, but I also appreciate abstaining from the use of ammonia. I moved into a house my husband had been living in already and the windows hadn't been washed in a very long time (this is not all on him, because I'm not exactly the best housekeeper myself). Regardless, I really liked this stuff. It was also really good at getting small, more solid spots off the window and I could definitely see the difference! I can't say I did a comparison with Windex, but I have had unpleasant experiences while using ammonia with other cleaning products, so I would say that this solution worked just as well (at the very least) as Windex. Thanks a lot!

Used it today on sliding door and bathroom mirror. Fast; the streak free part comes really easy when after scrubbing and a partial dry with paper towel use crumpled newspaper for the final dry and polish. I was looking for a cleaner that was acidic as the treatment on my cars windows calls for a acid based cleaner. Most detailer's cleaner ( way more expensive) are neutral or base so this is perfect. Knowing how well this works I will now read through the rest of your household tips.. Thank you!

This is the BEST!! I was skeptical to try it, but it worked better than any window cleaner I’ve ever bought.. crystal clear windows!

I've truly never seen anything like it.  My disabled daughter's glass windows and doors on her sunroom had been neglected and badly needed cleaning.  Offering to help, I started with a popular (blue) commercial window cleaner.  It wasn't up to the job-- was not able to cut the grime down to the glass, and left a streaky mess, despite repeated applications.  I found this recipe for homemade window cleaner with 3 simple ingredients, and figured what the heck, might as well give it a try.  The results were literally astounding-- spray it on, wipe off with a clean microfiber cloth.  Squeaky clean down to the glass, no streaks, like new, with one-tenth of the effort applied with the commercial cleaner.  I will never go back-- this is it from now on.  It truly made the job a breeze.  You won't believe it until you see for yourself, so give it a try.
