why you need to clean windows everyday?

Ofcoz not everyday, but when got time, I will think of the windows. I still remember when viewing the house, we thought that the dust on the windows can be cleanned easily, but who know after the dust layer, there is another layer of donno what laki or what sai, stick on all my window grill, I bought brasso, I bought autosol, still rub like hell then the can remove little bit of the stains. Apart from that, all my windows kena paints badly (thanks to the ex-owner), haiz, 1 cent money 1 cent goods lo!

Is it in kitchen? If it is, I think I know what.

Must be oil stain, very thick caused by long term cooking. Never clean after cooking becomes sticky after awhile. While cleaning it with cloth, you will see sticky black stain.

Tio Bo???

When your skin is dirty or when you sweat, you rub your skin and those dead cells will appear in grey-black colour, aparently I don't know what it was called in English, Hokkien peoples call it laki, just to describe how dirty my window grills are.

Jass, th kitchen one is totally 100% hopeless, and that why it cost me $280 to change it. All the rest of windows are dirty, with very thick stains, I really donno what is the easier way to clean besides rubbing with "cow-power", I saw some people recommend vesaline and zippo, but just think that it can't be help for my case. Anyway brasso and autosol solve the problems, but slowly..

NeoBY, you make me laught :D , I use that to clean my basin, tiles and WC, no problems. But for the stains that have been accumulating over the decades with no one bother to "take care" of them, I wonder the steel scrubber can do the job...

You will have scratch marks if you use that.
