Cleaning windows


There are many methods for cleaning windows.Avoid making your windows on a sunny day . Indeed, the water will evaporate quickly and you will have gray streaks.

Start by dusting windows and woodwork .

Prepare your washing solution : 1cuiller tablespoons of dish detergent to a bucket of water. If she removes so unsatisfactory dirt from your windows, try an acid solution and replace the dishwashing liquid by 1/4 glass mustard white vinegar to a bucket of water. The water is cold, not hot, because hot water will evaporate before you've had time to squeegee.

Gather some clean rags, lint, sponge and your squeegee .

Now learn how to handle the squeegee as a professional:

Start with the interior .

Place the bucket of wash solution to the left of your window, place a cloth over your right shoulder (left for left), fold another cloth and place it just below the bottom right corner of the glass to be cleaned for absorb water runoff.

Dip the sponge in the bucket of water, squeeze it, and place it on the glass from top to bottom then put the sponge in the bucket.

Enter the cloth that is on your shoulder, and use it to wipe and dry in your window on a band 5 cm along the sides and top edge of the glass, as drawn in blue on the picture.

Now take your squeegee and remember this maxim : my wiper blade is always dry, and my movement into a dry area of the window I always démarrerai.

Place your squeegee at the top left of the window, in the area under the context that you have and that is wiped dry, and holding down the squeegee against the glass, in a firm and steady motion, without tension, and stop at few centimeters from the bottom, to prevent runs of dirty water.

Take back your shoulder cloth and wipe the squeegee blade to dry.

Again, place the squeegee at the top of the window, it covers a quarter of a band that has just been cleaned, and print a downward movement, stopping a few centimères always lower.

So on, until the last band. Do not forget to dry the blade between two passages.

Now place the squeegee blade against the left edge of the window, bottom left on the tape that you have not treated and left wet and squeegee horizontally to the right edge. You then finish without water damage, since your last horizontal movement the cloth, you had carefully set in the bottom right of the window, collected all the filthy water.

Now go outside and try again.

When are you going to plan an operation "clean glass"? Why not make a team?

Just one other thing: a squeegee poor quality or badly dusted windows can cause scratches on your windows.

What is a hybrid car?

A conventional car, it runs on gasoline or diesel, works with an internal combustion engine. A hybrid car also has an engine, but also has an electric motor and batteries. This electric motor will operate in two situations: either in support of the engine, to give more power to the car, either alone, allowing the engine to remain off. In this case, we say that we drive in "all electric".

Specifically, recent models of hybrid car can run in all-electric low speed. During periods of high acceleration, both engines are operating simultaneously to deliver maximum power to the vehicle. The advantage of the hybrid is less when traveling at constant speed relatively high, eg on the motorway. In this case, consumption is almost identical to that of a conventional vehicle.

As for recharging batteries, it is done automatically by recovering the energy released at each stop. Furthermore, recent models of hybrid car can also be recharged from an outlet, this is called a hybrid "plug-in". Finally, no need to worry if the batteries are empty, because then it would be the engine that will take over, as in a conventional vehicle.
