How to Clean the Inside of your uPVC Window Frames

First start by cleaning the inside of the frame and hinges.

Open the window to the point of resistance

Use a vacuum cleaner to suck up any build-up of dust out of the hinges.

Use a vacuum  cleaner with a soft brush (unused paint brushes are great)  to go around the frame and to get in all the corners.

Use a soft cloth and warm water with a mild soap solution to clean inside the uPVC window frames.

Keep the hinges lubricated with a few drops of multi-purpose oil.

How to Clean your uPVC Window Frames

To avoid any discolouration or damage caused through over-vigorous cleaning trying to get rid of stubborn stains or marks, a regular wash with warm soapy water will keep your white uPVC window frames in the best condition.

Use a soft brush or soft cloth to brush off any loose dirt.

Make a warm water soapy solution with a squirt of washing-up liquid or a dedicated liquid window cleaner in a bottle (not the spray type).

Use a soft cloth and the soap solution to wash down the frames and windowpane.

DO NOT use a scouring pad, wire wool or sponge with a scouring surface.

The secret to getting crystal clear windows is to use a quality soft blade.

Start at one side and  sweep from side-to-side to the bottom or start at one side and swipe from top to bottom and then use your fingers or a cloth to wipe excess water off the squeegee before the next swipe.

To get a real sparkle finish you can use a specific window cleaning spray with a soft cloth and then rub down with kitchen roll or old newspaper. But DON’T spray this on the frames.

Use a soft cloth to apply to the windows and then use old newspaper to rub in a circular motion to dry to a sparkly finish.
