High-Rise Window Cleaning Supplies: Towels

Video Transcript

"My name is Jason, I'm with Hi-Tech Window Cleaning, and in this step I'm going to show you what kind of towels we use. To wipe up water, we just use real cheap, but very effective yellow towels. A lot of people use shammies, they work great too, their just more of an expense. These you can get for, you know, thirty, forty cents a piece. Shammies are ten to fifteen dollars, but they will last a long time if you take care of them. We just recommend this, they soak up a lot of water, you can wring them out, and you can wash them at home in your, you know, your regular washer and dryer, that's how we do it. To wipe up the edges, we use these surgical hot towels, their a little bit more expensive, they're about a dollar a piece, but they'll last a long time if you take care of them, and they're good around the edges. Just make sure that you keep the towel clean if it gets dirty, get a new towel, or you're just going to have to clean the window all over again. We don't recommend newspaper, or paper towels, or anything of that nature, because it just smears and leaves lint everywhere, and basically takes your clean window and ruins it, you've got to do it all over again. So, to soak up the edges, your window frames, use something thick, for the edges use something thin like surgical hot towels, that's what I recommend."
