Many people are used to scheduling cleaning for bright, sunny days, thinking it’s the perfect time to get things in order. However, experienced cleaners know the secret: cloudy weather – is not an excuse to postpone things, but the best condition to achieve perfect results without unnecessary effort.
The secret to no divorce
The main problem when washing windows in the sun is the following rapid evaporation of water and detergents. When direct rays heat the glass, the chemical composition dries almost instantly, leaving no time to wipe the surface thoroughly. As a result, the windows remain unsightly whitish streaks and rainbow stains that have to be rewashed several times.
On a cloudy day, the glass temperature remains stable and moderate. This allows cleaning agent effectively dissolve dirt and dust without turning into a dry film in seconds. You have time to safely remove the moisture with a squeegee or cloth from the microfiberto achieve crystal clarity from the first go.
Comfort and visibility of pollution
Working under the blazing sun can quickly become tiring, and the bright glare on the glass often masks real dirt. Eyes get tired from the sharp contrast of light, making it easy to miss small smudges or fingerprints. Scattered light under high cloud cover provides uniform illumination. In such conditions, even the smallest dust particles become visible, which guarantees better quality frame cleaning and window sills.
Saving resources and time
By choosing to clean on a day without sunshine, you make the process much easier:
-
Detergent consumption is reduced because you don’t have to reapply detergent.
-
Wipes stay wet longer and pick up dirt more effectively.
-
The time taken to polish one window is halved.
-
No rush allows you to pay attention to seals and hardware.
Moist air during overcast periods also prevents new dust from settling instantly on the statically charged glass. This keeps the freshness effect for a longer period of time compared to dry and windy weather.
Getting the timing right turns a tedious household chore into a quick and predictable process with guaranteed results. A cool day without precipitation is the optimal time to bring back the maximum amount of natural light to the home through clean windows.
