How to clean windows, mirrors and more. Clean, streak- and spot-free glass and mirrors are a cinch with the right tools and technique.

Here's how to give your glass extra sparkle. You'll need:

* a squeegee

* a glass cleaner

* a clean, lint-free rag.

1 Spray glass cleaner lightly on the rag.

Wipe clean the surface using horizontal strokes to prevent dripping.

2 Squeegee-dry.

3 For extra sparkle, polish the surface when it's nearly dry with a piece of newspaper.

The ink used in some papers may smudge the glass when it's wet, so try this first in a small area before buffing the entire surface.
