A good microfiber cloth can withstand hundreds of washes if you care for it properly. Avoid fabric softener and harsh chemicals that break down the fibers. Replace the cloth when it starts leaving streaks or lint behind.

It works on light dirt, but for greasy fingerprints and ingrained grime, you’ll get better results with a glass cleaner. Using glass cleaner with a microfiber cloth gives the cleanest, streak-free surface.

Microfiber has millions of fine fibers that capture dirt and moisture much better than an ordinary cloth. This means fewer streaks and less cleaning product is needed. A regular cotton cloth can leave lint behind and requires more polishing product.

Machine wash the cloth at 40–60°C without fabric softener. Fabric softener clogs the fibers and reduces the cloth’s effectiveness. Air-dry the cloth or tumble-dry it on low heat.

Window washing usually refers to rinsing off heavy dirt with water first. Window cleaner is used in the next step to polish the glass until it is shiny and streak-free. If the windows are very dirty, start with water and dish soap, then clean them with the window cleaner.

Of course, you can mix your own window cleaner with soap and water, but the result depends greatly on the proportions. Our window cleaner is pre-mixed with the right amount of soap and denatured alcohol to leave windows sparkling and streak-free.

The window cleaner helps you wash windows without streaks or smears thanks to its formula. Spray it on the surface, wipe with a cleaning cloth, and the window will be completely clean without streaks.

Yes, the window cleaner can be used on all glass surfaces, including windows, mirrors, and other glass surfaces. It is particularly effective at cleaning surfaces of, for example, fingerprints, dust, and stains. In addition to windows and mirrors, it can also be used on glass shower doors, glass oven doors, and eyeglasses.

Yes, but in cases of heavy soiling, the surface should be pre-treated. If the glass has ingrained dirt such as mud, soot, or thick grease deposits, you should first clean the surface with water and a grease-dissolving agent, such as soft soap or dishwashing liquid.

Yes. The product works on the outside of windows, but since exterior glass is often exposed to heavy dirt, pre-treatment may be needed to avoid streaks.

Lightly spray the glass surface; once per area is enough. Then wipe it with a glass polishing cloth or lint-free paper. On the first wipe, you dissolve the dirt; on the second and third passes, you polish the surface to a shine.

We recommend using a glass-cleaning cloth or lint-free paper for the best results and to avoid leaving lint on the surface.

The window cleaner contains water, denatured ethanol made from grain residues, and soap based on saponified rapeseed oil (Potassium canolate). It is ammonia-free.

Yes, Västerbottenssåpa’s window cleaner is made from 100% recycled plastic, and its contents are based on natural ingredients such as soap and ethanol.

No. The glass cleaner is specifically formulated for glass surfaces such as windows and mirrors. On other materials, its formula may cause stains or damage the surface finish.

No. The window cleaner contains ethanol and should therefore not be used on these surfaces. Ethanol can cause permanent damage to both plastic materials and certain metals.

That’s why you should avoid using window cleaner on these materials:

• Plexiglass (acrylic): The plastic can react with ethanol by becoming cloudy, developing microcracks (known as crazing), or even cracking completely over time.
• Caravan windows: These are often made of acrylic or polycarbonate, which are extremely sensitive to alcohol-based cleaning products.
• Aluminum: Uncoated aluminum may develop spots or discoloration from ethanol. Although painted or anodized aluminum is more resistant, caution is still recommended.

Yes, Västerbottenssåpa window cleaner is safe to use, but it is important to follow general safety tips such as: 

• Keep out of reach of children.
• Store at room temperature and away from heat sources.
• Avoid contact with the eyes. If contact occurs, rinse gently with water.
• Do not ingest the contents.

No, it’s not necessary. Just spray lightly and wipe until the surface is dry and shiny.

Yes, that’s because the window cleaner is based on our soap made from rapeseed oil. It’s a natural cleaning solution that is gentle yet effective and leaves the surface shiny.

The 0.5-liter bottle is made of recyclable PET plastic derived from 100% recycled material.
