Cleaning Windows

To prevent condensation building up on windows ensure there is sufficient ventilation in the room. If you have a build up of mildew stains, rub a dry, mildly abrasive sponge over the mildewed area, this will loosen some of the black mildew.  Wipe off with a paper towel and discard.  Wash down with warm soapy water and a sponge. 

 

Put on rubber gloves and in a bucket mix 240mls of household bleach with 4litres of water.  Dip a soft sponge in this solution.  Squeeze excess fluid out of the sponge before wiping down the wood surface.  Wipe down the mildew-stained wood and then scrub heavily stained areas.  Rinse out the sponge frequently or use a new sponge.  Allow the solution to sit on the stain for a few minutes to kill the mildew.  Wipe the area well with paper towels to dry the wood as much as possible.  If you have a fan heater direct towards the window to aid drying.
