Do the Spanish clean windows??
There seems to be a distinct lack of window cleaners in my part of Spain so I was wondering if the Spanish ever clean their windows.
My friend has a Spanish girl who does her cleaning and she takes out the windows to get them clean on both sides and then washes the frames with a kitchen towel - is this normal????

I clean my own windows as well and have to take them off the tracks in order to clean the outside (due to bars on the exterior), but I use a dust cloth for the frames, so maybe I'm only semi-normal

This sounds normal for me or should I say OH who also give the glass a rub over with the sporting news after. In the summer when the kids are here we give them the hose and a brush and let them clean the windows for us usually ends up with the rooms soaked as well
but they have fun

There is actually a noticable line outside our house on the pavement where our neighbour cleans up to
I have never seen a "window cleaner" in Spain
Our windows get cleaned perhaps once a month, or when they look dirty

Useful for doing the exterior of upstairs that you couldnt reach otherwise , and it works ..100% UNTIL !! You have a double glazing window with a wide space then the magnet isnt strong enough and drops of on the floor ...
Rating of the product = 8/10
