Sometimes, before you can even think about throwing soap and water on a window you’ve got to do a little bit of scraping. This LDS Industry Extendable Razor Blade is perfect for getting any sticky residue off of windows, whether it’s an old sticker or dried on paint.
Amazon reviewers say great things about the tool. “I was surprised when it did what no other cleaner or scraper could on the first try,” said one reviewer who used the tool on their car window. “When I scraped the window vertically it worked even better and cleaned up three years of state park stickers when nothing else could.”

The best part is the handle is comfortable to hold and it has a screw thread to attach a longer shaft to reach higher up windows.”

Tyroler Bright Tools The Glider Magnetic Window Cleaner
This magnetic window cleaner is effective for double-glazed windows, between 0.8 inch and 1.1 inch thick. Called “The Glider,” it allows you to clean the outside of your windows while staying indoors.
“Great product,” says a reviewer. “The strong magnets allow cleaning 5/8-inch-thick glass on hurricane sliding doors where a 3-inch space between the fixed insect screen and the glass would have been too small for traditional cleaning tools. Using soapy water in a garden sprayer to liberally coat both sides of the glass made it possible for The Glider to move freely in slow sweeping motions without the outside piece becoming detached. Most of the soap solution was removed by the squeeze (squeegee) and the few remaining drops were removed by using the microfiber cloths. This product is well-designed and worth the purchase price.”

Rienar Track Cleaning Tool
Designed to fit into the tracks of windows, sliding doors, and shower doors, the brush sweeps away dirt and the scraper dislodges debris from tight corners. To ensure a secure hold, this tool featuresan elevated, curved handle with built-in finger grips.
“Ok. Here is something I really like,” says a reviewer. ” I can’t get into these spaces with my vacuum attachments and a toothbrush doesn’t do as good a job as this tool. You can use it for dust, or with wet cleaners. It works both ways. I have plants on my windowsills and there is always an occasional water spill no matter how careful you are. Then there are insects that insist on dying in this area. It helps me get to dirt that annoys me and I am all for an easier clean.”

“All my windows have come out sparkling,” says an Amazon reviewer. “Since this is like a car buffer for windows it gets them much cleaner than I ever could. Only pitfall I’ve seen is the odd circular shape makes it not able to reach the corners of any windows. I considered that a small price to pay considering 99 percent of the window was much cleaner than when I started.”
