Finally, a truly useful window cleaning instructional video. No BS, no rambling blah blah, just right to the techniques. Thanks!
was at lowes the other day and the amount of cleaning equipment to wash windows blew mind mind....WOW....starting my new business...Yahweh willing...PRAISE YAHWEH!!!!!!!!
Wtf is Yahweh.
@@palmsofdestin1 They believe Yahweh is the creator of our Universe.
😂🤣😂
Yahweh is the name revealed to the prophet, Moses for the God of the Israelites. It was said to be so sacred that Israelites would not speak it, but they would write it out as YHWH. He is the Creator and sustainer of all things, and He became a man 2,000 years ago and died a sinless death for sinners like us so that we may have eternal life if we believe in Him as the one true God.
@@joshwoodcock5285 preach it brother. God bless.
Thank you everyone for all the views on this video!! I hope it's helped out!!
+Steve O What brand are these tools? How often do you replace them? What are the cost of all of them? Great technique! Awesome video!
What soaps do u use?
It's cool to see a good looking window cleaner. We don't have any good looking window cleaners where I'm at lol. I've been doing this for over 20 years. My business went from working 10 hour days down to 2 hour days due to chronic back pain. I can only handle being upright 2 hours cleaning windows. It stinks. I was making good money before. You're really good. Hope you can keep going longer than i have.
Is it just me who came here not to learn any techniques, but just to watch the act of window cleaning?
I don't know what is it or why, but I can't stop watching it. It's like a mediation to me!
Toutfarangi thank you...
Check asmr videos you'll be addicted to it i think
Toutfarangi SAME!
its depressing i do it as a job
YaY I'm not the Only One :)
Amazing video! This is the first time I've seen my technique anywhere. You really know your stuff!
Eres EL Maestro de los maestro😃😃..Parece facil PERO a la hora de la hora uffff complicado😊
Starting my own window cleaning business in Belgium.
Your video's are inspiring and helped me a lot!
Thanks!
Jurgen Joye awesome!! Good luck on your business!!
SteveO The Window Cleaner Thanks!
SteveO The Window Cleaner having a bit of a problem with residu on the window. Think I use to much Dawn (Dreft here in Belgium 😊) how much do you use in a gallon of water?
hey dude i think the window was clean like 10 cleanings ago ;)
On the clock killing time... and if the boss shows up, look the windows are clean.
Not if you have a clean window obsession. Then it is never clean enough.
@@Fosellar YESSSSSS
Great video I don't do much commercial and my residential business has expanded rapidly. This video gave me some great techniques to practice. Although in AZ you have to run that squeegee fast due to heat and dryness.
That's right. I'm in Tucson looking up get started. Amazon is just not cutting it. Thanks Stevo!
Great video... having my guys watch this on loop...lol
Steve O.....my brother ....you are awesome man.....thanks for the greater than great tips and tecks....you rock the window washing world....
Great video --- thanks! I'm just starting to add cleaning to my existing glass business (stained glass / wood window repair / restoration). Helpful stuff.
Hi! Steve O justo lo que andaba buscanco. Eres un "Crack". Congratulations!
Thanks so much , that's was awesome , Iv recently become unemployed, and was practicing window cleaning but was becoming a bit frustrated I enjoyed the way you presented it
Darren Parkes thank you Darren!
Wow, excellent presentation of techniques spanning rookie to pro!!
do you reckon there was anyone stood behind that window thinking fuck me mate it's clean!
Right, luckily they weren't there yet so I thought "perfect time to mess around"
That's the cleanest window in history
Great video Steve!
Thank you Luke!!
Great video Steve O and I like the different techniques. I'm watching and learning. I liked and subbed.
That was cool!! got some good looks now I'm ready to get my windows looking tight!!
I have washed windows so long, that I have achieved wizard status. Cool shirt ...
Good work ... I recently started a windowswashing company ... and learned a lot from you ... grtz from Belgium😉 (Massimo the windowcleaner)
lol this is so satisfying to watch tbh
Just a window of art... your awesome #oldschool
Technical mastery!
Thank you!!
Thumbs up to the Sorbo my favorite go to tool
i hate using fixed blades, wag tails are the best especially for cleaning windows on ropes. nice video mate the last one was funny
Dope!
very helpful video you make it look easy show the experience. great job Steve O. learn a lot.
I’m only just starting the basics lol hopefully soon be at that standard
You are so handsome! We have just started cleaning windows so this showed us some things! Thanks for the video
Thank you Ashley!!
its all about the creming 😂😂👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭 greetings from switzerland
Dry edge the window never take the squeegee away from it defo best technique if you do it for a living.
有難うございます。すごく参考になりました。
I learned a lot watching your videos, thanks for sharing 😏👍🏻
Straight Boss! Any tips for older shitty hard water stained windows
Hard water stain removers windowcleaner.com/products/diamond-magic-stain-remover?sca_ref=3020242.k17l3JaEgS
The perfect window washing. Your squeegee is your towel.
How do you know when the water starts to dry? Cuze if watter dries wont it leave water spots? Must be morning there hottest time of day in sun prolly have a little little window
May I say that this has to be the best way to look at me..Quick glance at the camera.:)
Hi, Good afternoon. Which channel do you prefer nowadays Ettore, Sorbo Quicksilver or Ninja?
What channel measures do you recommend having both for houses or residential and for commercials?. Thanks
Ettore brass is my main channel windowcleaner.com/ettore-master-brass-squeegee-channels?pt=MY
Some window rubbers are fucked by aging and the squeegee grips on it because of that. I can barely get it dry in once with the S technique. How you get along with that?
The best tutorial video!
First technique I'm not big fan of. If you drag from rubber sill you pull dirt and leave streak. And yes you can put rag on your blade and clean but that's extra step.
Gracias !!!! fue muy útil para mi.
Where was the 2 hand method, with squeegee following close behind applicator?
cleaning cleaning cleaning !
Why is this so satisfying
This was hilarious to watch... I've never seen half those cuts... was that a bar Steve O cuz I think your drunk.... Go home Steve O, your drunk lol good video bro
It was a bar!! Haha I was waiting for them to open and thought well perfect time to make a vid! Glad you enjoyed it!
a guy who works for apple blossom in my town centre does it like that 1:20 hes turned it into an art he will do it in one big swoosh and doesnt make a mess its very satisfying watching him work the windows are sparkling afterwards i dont think he knows how good he is which i find pretty sad he would do very well if he had the confidence to go self employed.
Steve O what's up man. Haha.
Mad views. Love it.
Window Cleaning BluePrint thank you Keith!!
Im new to this , i need advice on good equiptment.
Awesome. I want to become a window cleaner.
To learn these techniques better watch this video:
czcams.com/video/ptRWnC9WlP4/video.html
The things we do to keep ourselves amused ;-)
how do you keep the water from dripping off the sides? Everytime i try those 'S' techniques i fail miserably. Seriously i can only do the top to bottom ones.
...plate glass is OK..but I do residential cleaning all year..this job can be a nightmare when my boss sends me to do a house with french and storm windows.. good video!
Best thing I've found for French panes is to get an ettore that you can cut the channel to the exact size of the panes. It's worth it if you do them enough.
Oh this is so helpful, I'm terrible!
Which gloves do you wear in the winter? Ones with an AA battery powered heater in them?
If the window is being cleaned regularly (weekly), you can leave a 1/2inch (ish) dry line along the top, if the window isn't too dirty is that correct?
If they're a weekly or bi-weekly maintenance account, you can leave a small bit at the top occasionally, but another window washer will be able to recognize that you left it undone.
I can always spot windows that have a guy.
streaking on that last one. I always streak a little when fanning a squeegee smaller than 12 inchs. What is the purpose of the windmill technique? Also I have rule for my employees. if the window is small enough for two passes only use straight pulls. I do 80% residential so anything seen from the inside reqiires a do over or quick repair. Good video but I cant use it because of the first technique is missing the top frame edge to be dried before squeegeeing begins.
+Doug Stansell Yea I would never use a 12 inch on this big of a window, straight pulls can be good but I really only do it on commercial windows, I try to do as little as I can doing residential. Overall fanning is a better product then straight pulls. Windmill is strictly for fun . If you did it on every window you would need shoulder surgery in 6 months lol you do not need to dry the top edge if your doing straight pulls, you should wipe the top edge after doing the straight pulls if you've dried the top edge or not.
+Steve O oh I use the edge of my squeegee to dry the top just about 1 inch and yes detailing the top with a huck towel as well as the sides. Fanning in my opinion may create less water on the sides but still leaves a tiny bit and really be seen on the inside quite a bit. Every person that claims to not need to use a towel has never proven it to me. allthough wood frame windows seem to absorb that excess water most of time.
pretty much would only use the scraper on those nasty suction cup stains.
Thanks! Very helpful!
Hey I'm in new window washer what is that squeegee you're using
great job man !!!
Where do you buy green towels are they huck towels send me a website link???
YO LOVING YOUR STYLE
Great techniques!;-)
Nice Shammy
My staff would be in big trouble for missing that huge area at 10-12 seconds on the 3rd window and it was the same on the middle window but to a lesser degree.
If the window was dirty it would not be good if I missed that spot but when doing commercial accounts every month the windows should be clean enough that the residual water going over that space would clean it up. Remember your a boss of a window cleaning company not a military sergeant!
True, however I wouldn't be happy if I owned the business and saw that, I know you would get away with it on commercials that are regular but its a bad habit to get into as when you go to a domestic that hasn't be cleaned for 2 years you may to the same habitual cleaning method. Other than that I must say a good video, so well done.
Great video
may I ask for those type of windows.. what would be preferred size (inch) of a squeegee what are you using in this video?
An 18" and 24" channel
Good job 👍
Mesmerizing
I've enjoyed your video, you have a really good control of your hands. Not to offend but I've been cleaning windows for 10 years, for some of the techniques you showed, if u get a hot dry day with a real dirty window with the sunshine hitting on the windows you'd leave line marks everywhere, plus the way you did the corners at the first technique would leave massive "alloni" white marks on the sides. But you are showing different techniques for different situations, so I'll give you that. I'm not sure you always do the corners that way, I hope not! :) Really nice video anyway, good for shops with fine quality smooth windows.
asafe galante Dude, YOU know what's up with windows! I've been doing it 2 yrs professionally, trained by company been around since the 80's. You are exactly right in your comment. Nailed everything I wanted to say. Nice comment! Thank you!
What are you foolios talking about? It looks clean to me..
asafe galante Can you please share which technique is the best to avoid these issues?
Do you cut your edges with residential windows? Also fanning with that big of a squeegee takes some practice. Nicely done
If you mean do I fan residential Windows then yes I do
+Steve O No I mean do you cut your edges with your squeegee or a towel. Before you squeegee it.
+True Clarity Window & Gutter Cleaning not usually, sometimes on cut-ups I will. Commercial I just go for it and get the work done
+Steve O Yeah, no need for it on commercial. With cut ups it's definitely a must, for me anyway. Do you just leave a little dry space when you wet it or what? With residential it seems quicker to just cut the edge real quick instead of the extra detail for me
Came a long ass way stevo. This video made me some serious money hahaha!
Owen Gollaba thank you Owen!!
I'm just starting out on this Biz.... You did the same window 5 times... Was that just to show how it's done or make it really clean??
+Tom Truman Oh I see it in the Title of this video... ""Different techniques
Hey steve i have a question. when doing a normal window cleaning job and most of the windows have water spots is it your responsibility to get them all off or try your best to get the water spots and move on?
For a normal window I would take some 0000 steel wool and try to rub away the hard water to see how bad it is. If it does or doesn't come off with it you should definitely charge double to triple to remove any extreme hard water, it's very time consuming and is no fun! A1 hard water removal cream works well!
What’s the best way if we can’t to the cool ass fanning technique yet😂 it’s hard
great video man. bet those windows would have been spottless! just a question, not being a smaet ass really just trying to learn, is there a need to do them that many times? are you applying different cleaning solution or using a different tool each time? thanks in advance.
space cadet ??? I'm just cleaning them to show different techniques with the squeegee, you would never clean a window more then once on commercial jobs! Really??
A lot of different techniques, very cool, some look like they're for show. How do you feel about the mop in one hand and sqyeegee in the otehr and botha t the same time? I know people think that is a def show technique but I like it
Yea some are for show 😉 I definitely follow the mop with the squeegee when the sun is blazing, but overall I only use it if I'm in a rush or just bored
+Steve O Thanks for sharing the very informative video ( and yes I'm a man ;) ). Do you use dish soap as cleaning agent?
Grtz
where can I go to get shirts made like that? I like the logo on the sleeve
Really any shirt maker should be able to make these
Why go over it three times? I usually only do once. Also, my soap dries really fast, what do you use?
Try a little bit of vinegar
Ha Ha great pal. I noticed though at around 3min 36s when doing the fanning it was leaving a trail behind at the top of the squeegee like I do sometimes, this is something I'm trying to get rid of,
Window Cleaning isn't a perfect science, don't stress over the little things, I used to and it stressed me out. One thing I learned early was to look at windows the way the customer does and that's if they look good from a far most likely the customer will be happy with the product. It's a lot better then windex and paper towels ;)
Cheers mate
Steve O Cool Steve! I like your attitude on this, I used to work with a sign painter that told me " people can only see a sign from one side at a time" meaning, if you made some minor mistake that didn't match the other side, don't stress, you have to consider the end-users experience of the product, they don't nit pick it like you might. Sad truth: if a window washer is good enough, people don't even know they were there and probably don't care, they just like their reflection in the glass!
+zach wasil thank you Zach! A lot of beginner window cleaners are OCD about every little thing on the window. Painting is definitely similar. I've had this mindset for a long time and it allows me to get through work easily and makes life a lot less stressful.
What channel and handle you using?
Hey Steve sometime when I'm fanning the window and going through the top pass I leave a line of water sometimes, how do you suggest I change my technique so it is done with no lines?
This happens to everyone, always keeping your rubbers fresh and sometimes carefully pulling the little pieces off at the end of the rubber that shred throughout a day can help. I find I notice it way more in the winter then summer. It gets really frustrating sometimes
Landon Irwin Use technique @ 2:50 Don't start on the edge going up as that brings extra water into the corner. Start in the middle top and come back for the other one
I "thumb up" #666 so that's worthy of a comment.
hi. what kind or brand is the squezee you used on this video? where can i buy it?
Romualdo Martinez this is a sorbo squeegee...check it out at www.windowcleaner.com
hehe, that look towards the camera 'yes, this might be illegal, but I'm gonna do it anyways, ha! Watch this!'. xD
'oooh, they haven't busted me yet, did you see me do it? So bad! Ha! Might just flex and do it again! For the streetcred!'
What is the window cleaning liquid you use?
Water and Joy Soap
+Steve O JOY??? Dish Soap??
WOW!
satisfying video lol
most of his techniques left lines,u just can't see them because they dry fast .iv been cleaning Windows for 3 years. I was looking for people that use poles...
"Left lines but you just can't see them" hahahaha thanks Chris! Please show us how it's done! I'm looking forward to it!
Chris Romero so whats tge best way to clean windows? I want to start my own cleaning business and i came here for advice.
I know what Chris is talking about. Too much rubber on dry glass. Basic squeegee turning. TRY all that on residential "tattle-tell" glass in the summer...Squeegee mark squeegee mark squeegee mark! But overall, very nice wrist action. Very fluid, smooth. Didn't leave much water on edges. He did keep the squeegee wet though. Nice vid!
So what are you using to clean these windows?
Ann a squeegee, dawn soap and water, and a microfiber sleeve
What do you put in the water and what ratio ?
dawn dish soap is what ya need. few squirts but don't get to much suds
Don’t use dish soap it attracts 3x the dirt way faster winded or vinegar is still your best bet
Vinegar will turn tint purple.
If it keeps attracting dirt over two weeks then you have a steady customer now don't ya... you're welcome
Do you even lift bro💪😎😁
What do you use for solution?
Dawn or joy dish soap and water
Thanks for the video, it's very helpful. You make it look so easy. Got my first window job tomorrow at a bank. Little nervous, any tips or advice?
The first method seems faster to me.
What towels do you use Steveo
Lee Poole surgical towels and old bath towels 😃
Thank you bro
👍
