1🧽 Squeegee 5-Step Method
The professional squeegee technique 🌟
A squeegee is the secret weapon of professional cleaners. It cuts cleaning time by HALF and gives zero streaks. Master these 5 steps:
1️⃣Spray glass cleaner on the clothNOT directly on glass! Spray the cloth, then wipe. Less waste, no drips
2️⃣Wet the entire glass surfaceUse a damp microfiber cloth. Cover all area — top to bottom
3️⃣Squeegee top-to-bottom in straight linesStart at top corner. Pull DOWN in one smooth motion to the bottom
4️⃣Wipe blade DRY between strokesUse a clean cloth to wipe the squeegee blade after EVERY stroke
5️⃣Overlap each stroke by 2-3 cmNo glass should be missed. Continue until whole window is done
🪟Polish edges with dry microfiberSqueegee can't reach corners — use cloth for the very edges
💡
Why Squeegee Beats ClothA squeegee removes water in ONE pass. A cloth pushes water around and leaves streaks. After 1 day of practice, you'll be 3x faster than the old way! Ask madam if she has one — most GCC homes do. 🌟

2👁️ Angle-Light Streak Check
The pro's secret: how to SEE streaks ✨
Streaks are invisible from straight-on. You can think glass is clean — but madam will see streaks at an angle! Use this professional check:
🚶Step BACK 2 meters from the glassFar away you see what madam sees when she enters the room
💡Look at the glass from an ANGLENot straight ahead. Tilt your head. Look from the SIDE.
☀️Use natural light if possibleOpen curtains. Sunlight reveals every smudge instantly!
🔦Or use phone flashlightAt night or no sun — phone torch from the side shows streaks
✋Run finger along glass — feel greaseIf your finger drags, there's grease left. Wipe again.
🪞Mirrors: walk past, watch reflectionStreaks make reflection blurry. Clear mirror = clear reflection
🔄Found a streak? Re-do that sectionDon't ignore it. 30 more seconds = perfect job
🌟
Pro TruthIf madam can spot a streak — you missed it. Always check from her viewing angle, not yours. Stand where she stands. Look how she looks. Then you'll never miss a streak again! 👁️
