Cleaning window frames can be a tricky task, especially when dealing with built-up dirt and grime. However, using absorbent cotton can make the job much easier and more effective. Here’s how you can do it:

• Cleaning solution (you can use a mixture of water and a few drops of dish soap or a commercial window cleaner)
• A bowl or container
• Gloves (optional)
• Paper towels or a clean cloth for drying

Steps:

1. Prepare the Cleaning Solution:

1. Soak the Cotton:

• Take the absorbent cotton balls or pads and soak them in the cleaning solution. Make sure they are well-saturated but not dripping wet.

1. Wipe the Window Frames:

• Take a soaked cotton ball or pad and start wiping down the window frames. Focus on the corners and areas where dirt and grime tend to accumulate.
• If the cotton ball or pad gets too dirty, replace it with a new one and continue cleaning.

1. Scrub Stubborn Spots:

• For tougher stains or spots, you may need to scrub a bit harder. The absorbent cotton should help lift the grime without scratching the surface.

1. Rinse if Necessary:

• If you used a soapy solution, you might want to wipe the window frames again with a clean, damp cloth to remove any soap residue.

1. Dry the Frames:

• Use paper towels or a clean, dry cloth to wipe the window frames dry. This will help prevent water spots and ensure a clean finish.

1. Inspect and Repeat if Needed:

• Check the window frames to ensure all the dirt and grime have been removed. If necessary, repeat the process in areas that need extra attention.

• For a more thorough cleaning, consider using an old toothbrush to get into any tight spots or grooves in the window frames.
• Regular cleaning can prevent the build-up of dirt and grime, making future cleanings easier.
