On sunny days, dirty windows can detract from the beauty of clear skies. Increased sunlight and pollen season expose dust and smudges on glass surfaces, making them appear particularly dirty. Cleaning expert Alexis, founder of Chemistry Cachet, suggests a surprising solution: using tea. The tannins in tea effectively bind to and remove stains, making it easier to clean windows without leaving streaks. To clean windows, steep four black teabags in 225 milliliters of boiling water, allow the mixture to cool, and transfer it to a glass spray bottle. Lightly spray the solution on the windows and wipe with a microfiber cloth for a streak-free finish. This method is not only cost-effective but also reduces the need for harsh cleaning products, providing a simple and natural way to achieve gleaming windows in just ten minutes.
