Hi Friends,
This is the summer I spent in Window Hell... Am I having fun, yet?
I can't do much else as I am recuperating from some surgery.
Much of the glass on all my Hehr push out windows appears to have some sort of residue on them. At an angle when looking at the glare, it looks almost like over spray from paint spray.
In cleaning the windows, I have removed the glass, washed off with soap and water and then went over with a wet soap filled Brillo pad. I have tried a razor blade to carefully scrape the surface and I still can't get it off. I have tried Lime Away which did nothing thinking it was hard water deposits.
Anyone have any other ideas? I decided, if I have to, I am going to buy all new glass. My dog already broke one and that was a $20 replacement. It bugs me too much if I can't get this residue off the glass. I really like clean glass.
BTW I only have one Jalousie window and that glass does not have the residue on it, it's just sort of yellowed. You can see it when you stack the glass sections on one another.
Thanks,
Rod
