Glass Cleaners

Glass Cleaners at Walgreens

Glass is one of the most delicate materials in your home, so you need to use special care whether you're cleaning a decorative accent, a tabletop or a window. Using the right cleaning product can help ensure best results. Choosing cleaning products formulated specifically for the material can protect the surface while removing debris to leave glass sparkling clean. At Walgreens, you'll find a diverse assortment of glass cleaners available for purchase online and in stores, so you can stock up on the best products for your needs with ease.

Solutions for Cleaning Windows and Mirrors

All windows and mirrors require frequent cleaning to look their best, and many of the glass cleaners found in this product selection are ideal for these surfaces. Spray-on glass options are popular because they allow you to easily dispense glass cleaner and cover a large area with a fine mist to speed up cleaning.

To get the most out of glass cleaner, you'll need to wipe with a sponge, soft cloth or squeegee. Glass cleaning wipes eliminate the need for these tools. With wipes, you simply remove a premoistened towelette from the packaging and rub it over the glass surface. After the job is done, you throw the wipe away. For tough jobs, you may need to use more than one wipe.

Some brands offer cleaning tools that feature a head attached to a long handle. A disposable wipe attaches to the head, and the handle extends your reach to help you clean the tops of large windows and mirrors. No matter what type of glass cleaner you use, working from top to bottom can help ensure best results.

Disinfecting Products for High-Touch Glass

Conventional glass cleaners are formulated with ingredients that lift away soap residue, dust and other impurities. For most types of glass surfaces, using these products is enough to maintain a clean home. However, for glass surfaces that are frequently touched or that may come in contact with germs, you may want to choose a glass cleaner that cleans and disinfects. Glass surfaces that may benefit from disinfecting include cutting boards, dining tabletops and light switch covers.

Comparing Window Cleaners

To find the right window cleaner for your home, start by considering ingredients. If members of your family are sensitive to certain chemicals, you may want to opt for an ammonia-free glass cleaner or a product that substitutes plant-derived ingredients and other natural substances for common synthetics. You can also compare the scents of the products available and choose one that suits your preferences. For liquid glass cleaners, the bottle size is another consideration. The amount of cleaner per bottle is measured in ounces and shown in the product names.

Some brands sell large bottles of glass cleaner with pour tops. After you have used the initial supply in your spray bottle, you can refill it from the big pour container. Doing so helps to reduce plastic waste and may be more economical.
