Mrs Hinch fans have shared a simple remedy for those looking to get "sparkly" and streak-free windows. With hard water and harsh chemicals, getting a smooth and clear finish can be trickier than it may first seem.
Thankfully, there are Facebook groups which are dedicated to influencer Sophie Hinchcliffe - better known as Mrs Hinch - in which people can share their tips and tricks. A member of one of these Facebook groups was having issues with streaks after cleaning their windows and was looking for a solution.
After asking for help on Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips, the poster received a simple remedy and method that can be made and carried out at home.
The frustrated user wrote: "What is the best glass cleaner - fed up of streaks?"
The page, which has more than 620,000 users, was clearly the right place to go as users were quick to share their clever and cost-effective hacks. One of which requires an item that most households will already have in their cupboards.
"Vinegar in a bowl of hot water, use this to clean the window, then wipe dry with kitchen paper," wrote one commenter. The cleaning fan went on to explain that a mixture of half warm water and half white vinegar can leave mirrors "sparkly" and others recommended using it alongside Minky green glass cloths to get that streak-free finish.
There's a good chance that you have white vinegar at home, but if you don't it can be picked up for as little as 29p at Tesco. Meanwhile, Sainsbury's sells Minky M Cloth Glass & Window for £2,75.
This comes after Mrs Hinch fans shared a separate 10p item that can banish 'caked on' oven door stains. According to the Facebook group members a wet dishwasher tablet can help get the door cleaned up.
Whilst your first thought may be to grab the scourer and scrub the stains off of the glass, this should be avoided as this can leave nasty scratches on the surface. Instead, group members in the comments section recommended gently rubbing the tablet over the stains to remove them.
