Smeary bloody windows!

Do any Mumsnetters have some kind of trick or hack that I've missed (after 50 odd adult years on this planet) to get my windows clean? I thought I had cleaned them adequately last week. The sun is out and they look as though a three year old has been doing it. Totally smeared. I have a Karcher. Do I need to do both sides of each pane? Finish with a chamois? Posting here for traffic.. please help!

Not sure what your budget or what size of windows you have but I recommend a Karcher Window Cleaner, they make various sizes at corresponding prices but they really do a professional job.

Mr Muscle window cleaner, everything else seems to smear for me.
A minky cloth to clean, then a dry minky cloth to buff. I use the Costco big yellow ones.

I thought you had blood on the windows! 🫨 I was wondering what goes on in your house...
Inside I use warm water with a bit of washing up liquid and a microfibre cloth then the Karcher window vac with the Karcher cleaner. Outside is done by the window cleaner but he's traditional and uses distilled water and s cloth and hates washing up liquid!

Vinegar added to the soapy water. And Newspapers to dry off the windows. You’ll have the shiniest windows in the country. Guaranteed!

Vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Two microfibre cloths, one for wet and one for polishing.

Only discovered this last weekend and it’s like my glasses are clean and I can see again!
