Asphyxiant chemical smell in the apartment, cloudy stains on the windows, and you - with a crumpled newspaper trying unsuccessfully to wipe the stains from the glass after another miracle remedy. Familiar? Stop experimenting and buy everything! Listen to the advice of the housewives, who have already tried different liquids for washing the windows and found the best ones. And we only compiled on the basis of their feedback a peculiar rating, comparing all the pros and cons.

Window cleaner for which company to choose

In the Russian market, detergents are presented in three main categories.

Let's take a look at the best representatives in three categories:

1. Best household products in the mass market category:

• Homestar - the cheapest and most effective;
• Clin Windows &Glass - the most popular;
• Help - the most economical.

2. Best concentrates:

• Amway L.O.C.- a universal tool "for all occasions";

• Magos Mirror is the most affordable.

3. The best eco-funds:

• IKeep!- the most natural;

The best household products

In this rating, the most trouble-free sprays for fast cleaning of glasses hit the customers opinion. They include alcohols and surfactants, which easily remove dirt and degrease the surfaces, performing the main job. Alas, they can not be called harmless - similar solutions contain chemical perfumes that interrupt the sharp alcohol smell. But with their task they manage to "five", and most importantly - do not leave on the glass of divorce.

Homestar - quality higher than the price of

That rare case when a little-known brand produces excellent products. There is simply no negative feedback on the glass cleaner. Partly this is due to its low price, with which the landlady and their expectations are correlated.

But there are also objective advantages for Homestar:

• Economical consumption;
• Rapidly evaporates from the surface, leaving no streaks;
• Really adds shine to glass and mirrors;
• Easily copes with bold traces;
• The lowest price on the market;
• Large 750 ml bottle.

Cons however purely subjective and not perceived by buyers as unimportant:

• A pronounced alcohol smell that quickly erodes;
• In case of severe glass contamination, you will have to rub harder to get a good result.

Homestar spray from CJSC Invent is mainly distributed through the network of FixPrice stores.

Clin Windows &Glass - the most popular brand on the market

Henkel products pleased not only with efficiency, but with a small know-how - the hinged cover of the sprayer with a mesh. The latter gives a thick foam, though quickly sliding down the glass. The consumption of liquid from this decreases, but also the quality of cleaning, contrary to the idea of ​​the manufacturer, too. So you have to choose: either switch to the usual "spray" and get a quick effect, or use an economical foam, but spend more time and energy on washing the windows. We recommend using a new spray mode for local spot cleaning.

Pros Henkel Clin:

• No stains on the glass;
• Economical foam mode;
• Well and quickly copes with dirt on windows;
• Chemical odor is mild;
• There are replaceable vials on sale;
• Very strong spray.

Cons:

• Price is too high;
• Does not always cope with greasy coating from the outside of the window and in the kitchen.

Clin Windows &Glass comes with three flavors: apple, lemon and orange. But, according to reviews, they can hear chemical notes. If that does not suit you, buy a liquid without a smell.

Help - an economical spray for frequent cleaning

A good product of the Russian manufacturer Alfateform at an affordable price Excellent coping with the usual stains on the windows and mirrors, but can save in front of strong pollution from the street. We'll have to wash the windows first with a soapy solution, and only then we can bring beauty to the Help, so that there are no divorces left.

Pros:

• Copes with "average" dirt and fingerprints;
• Does not leave a cloudy coating on the glass;
• Economical expense due to the small diameter of the nozzle, which gives a small cloud of spray;
• Suitable for washing PVC windows;
• Antistatic( dust-repellent) effect.

Cons:

• The smell, though not sharp, but obviously chemical and resistant;
• Can not cope with the first time with severe dirt;
• Slowly evaporates from the surface, which will make you work with a rag.

When buying, pay attention to the volume of the bottle: Help is sold in bottles of 500 and 750 ml.

The best concentrated means of

These glassmills are for the most part designed for professional use - and usually they are purchased by cleaning companies. However, this does not mean that special chemistry can not be used at home. Concentrated cleaners are effective, sparingly consumed, and their high price should not frighten you. The only problem is that it is not easy to find such products on a free sale.

Amway L.O.C.- "universal soldier"

Many are negatively opposed to grid companies, but among their products there are really effective means. Amway L.O.C.- just that case. The concentrated liquid is diluted with water in a separate bottle with a spray gun( ratio 1: 3 - until a light-blue shade is obtained).After that, it can be used as a normal household spray.

• High price in the catalog per bottle in 500 ml.

There are reviews on the web that talk about the inefficiency of liquid L.O.C.But they are single, which rather indicates problems of uncontrolled movement of goods on a "hand-to-hand" basis.

HG for washing windows and frames( Netherlands) - effective and safe

This concentrate should be classified as an Eco section because its formula is non-toxic and safe for humans and the environment. To prepare a conventional solution, dilute 15 ml of HG in 5 liters of water. Dosage varies depending on the complexity of the contaminants.

Magos Mirror - those who love all the brilliant

Fans of "green chemistry" unanimously recommend using iKeep!as the most effective and safe tool. At the same time, the price is rather average than high.

Faberlic House - ideal for washing glass and mirrors in the bathroom

Another network product, more oriented to use in the bathroom. Declared by the manufacturer anti-fogging effect, none of the unsubscribers did not notice much, but our customers are already given do not believe everything that is seen on the labels. But the liquid for glasses Faberlic showed another plus: after the first cleaning, soap and lime flows are eliminated easier from the surface of the mirrors and the walls of the shower room.

Other advantages:

• Weak, unobtrusive odor;
• Copes with lime traces of hard water;
• Resistant to anti-static and dirt-repellent effect;

• Can dry hand skin, which the manufacturer forgot to mention.

An attempt to create a safe household chemistry for the home of the customer Faberlica was credited. From ourselves we add that the manufacturer should be more honest with consumers when it comes to the product for such a sum.

Zero BIO Eco Spray - maximum of advantages

Cleaner from the company "The First Solution" is made on the basis of white vinegar and allegedly exudes the aroma of mint. On the third place of our rating, it crawled "with a creak", because it contains alcohol and surfactants, albeit in smaller quantities. But just look at this impressive list of advantages!

Pros:

• Excellent in cleaning mirrors;
• Contains safe non-ionic surfactants;
• Perfume is replaced with essential oils;
• Vinegar is used as the solvent;
• Does not leave stains and gives the surfaces a bright gloss;
• Contains antistatic;
• Washes away difficult spots and a long-lasting plaque.

Cons:

• Composition is not 100% natural, but the manufacturer has taken the security measures unequivocally;
• Impossible, poorly regulated dispenser;

Hosts definitely liked the price of Zero Bio, as well as its natural composition. Some scare the content of surfactants, but these are non-ionic substances that are recognized as non-toxic.

Which tool for washing windows to buy

In this review, we considered only effective tools for washing windows and mirrors that are good at coping with their main task. For those who have higher requirements for household chemicals, we give a few tips for the last:

1. If you want to save money, the best solution is to buy Russian brands Homestar or Help. It will be necessary to work, but cleanliness and splendor without divorces are provided.

2. For concentrated contaminants and rare general cleaning, concentrated liquids are suitable. In this case, "HG" is good, but if you can not get it, you can buy Amway L.O.C.
