Have used this product for many years with great results. Here's what I do. 1. Spray window with water (use low pressure since water can leak inside widow edges if you blast it) . 2. Lightly "scrub" window with pad. Should make a light "suds" as you move pad around. 3. Promptly rinse widow with water, starting at the top. 4. Let dry.

I'm sorry, I don't use that one. I use the one you hook to your hose. It doesn't have a pad cleaner. The windows come out great and it cleans the screens too.

Hi Diane,My husband just attaches the bottle to our garden hose and afterwards uses a squeegee. I hope this helps.

I've seen this on mine (over a year old) when I use a typical glass cleaner - I believe the cleaner residue is the issue.I generally clean and then finish with simple vinegar/water solution to remove the residue every few months.

Either a microfiber cloth or Windex makes a special screen cleaner . Do not use paper towels.

I am thinking you need to scrape it off the glass with a razor. Then soak and wash the window with an ammonia based liquid.Good Luck. It should all come off. You should wear a mask while scraping and vacuuming up the paint off the window.

I didn't use for my windods, but it would think it would be good for the windows, it is very reflective. Hope this helps. I would req.

I had the same thing. It was dirty... Use white vinegar to clean the water reservoir and fan. Replug in, place in the reservoir tank filled. It should work. These need new filters about every three months because they filter alot of air, its amazing whats in our air..especially if you keep a window open... Hope this helps.

I use warm soapy water. I've read not to use windex so I would stay away from cleaners like that.

it's a terrible job; I used this stuff and I compromised my laminate; I tried everything to clean my floor later on and the only way worked was WINDEX for windows, but you have to push very hard when you clean with a cloth by hand because in no other easy way to clean it

I had the same issue and don't like to use chemicals. I bought a roll of common fiberglass window screen and laid it across the top, used the ring that came with the barrels to hold it down. I haven't seen any problems since then.

Get rid of the plastic stuff doesn't work. None of the plastic junk for these portables work. I find the best way to do this is to Have someone cut a piece of wood the length of your window and the height of the opening for the hose. Have them cut a circle in the wood so you can run the hose out the wood to the outside. Duct tape the hose to the wood so it doesn't pull out.

I live on a very dusty ranch. If it rains on my windows and then gets windy, my windows are dusty. I have ordered 3 extra packages of pads and I ordered a big bottle of cleaner. U will also need an extension. I have 15 huge windows just in the front of my house and I sometimes have to change the pads on every window. Sometimes I can get two windows per pad. But I do spray the pads for every window. That being said, I still would not give up my winbot. I have tried every thing in the world to clean my front windows, and have failed until Winbot came along. I love it and when it dies I will buy another. Worth every penny.

for cleaning all you should need is windex, did you remove the film from it?. scratches would have to be polished out. just like any other mirror. i would find some glass repair and use it. to fill the scratch then polish

Let it soak in window cleaning mixture about 5.min (household spray bottles are fine) and then use plastic scrapers (plastic razor blades) to remove it

Be sure to use a towel with no additives in it and just a soft cotton towel is great and on my car windows I use just newsprint and sprayway. The windows come out streak and flaw free it looks like no glass at all. Showroom clean..Try it. fkarr@bellsouth.net
