First glass and window cleaning after the construction phase

Worse than the glass panes themselves, I find cleaning the frames on the bottom "inside" :mad:

Hello, I would get in touch with a company that carries out the [Harvestering]. Why bother, you can forget the problem for a fraction of the cost.

In such cases, we simply call the Rümpelmannschaft. Then at least we know that it will be done properly. Unfortunately, you can’t rely on every team you hire. In Düsseldorf, it’s the regular address in my circle of friends. We have all had to move several times. Sometimes because one of us had children and sometimes because another environment is simply nicer. You know how it is, the family gets bigger and suddenly you have to look for the best school district. Life used to be easier.

Isn't that the point you tell the window maker, he should take the extra thick protective film when packing up or leaving the factory and nicely wrap everything up again after installation. Of course, it depends on the window, but this way you can save yourself quite a bit.

So window cleaning with construction dirt is, depending on the degree of contamination, a challenging task even for an experienced window cleaner. Since these are also ESG and VSG panes, as a layperson I would use the following materials:

- Bucket of warm water
- Dish soap
- Microfiber cloth
- Plastic scraper/wooden scraper (No metal scraper!)
- Walnut pad
- Several cloths (material doesn't matter, as they are only for catching water)

Place cloths in front of the window so they catch the dirty water. Mix the dish soap with the warm water and apply it to the window using your microfiber cloth. Repeat this process until the coarse dirt is removed. Then moisten the pane again and rub the remaining dirty spots with the walnut pad (repeat). If there are still stubborn spots that cannot be wiped away: carefully use a plastic/wooden scraper. The same applies to the frame. Why no metal scraper? The metal scraper is not suitable for ESG and VSG during window cleaning, because the glass is under pressure and can shatter!

I hope I could help.

Thank you! After the OP has waited three years, the discs can finally be cleaned…
