How to Clean Window Tracks

When was the last time you looked in to your window tracks? Tracks are a collecting place for mold, dust, bugs, and insects. The best way to clean tracks takes time, proper tools and supplies. The supplies and tools are most likely things you will find in your garage or tool kit.
It is important to clean the tracks before you clean the windows. If windows are cleaned first, the water will mix in the tracks and make cleaning window tracks more difficult.
Tools and supplies
• Vacuum with crevice attachment and small brush attachment

3. With a stiff paint brush or tooth brush, loosen all additional debris.
4. Vacuum additional debris with you brush attachment.
5. Wipe clean with a wet towel soaked in hot soapy water.
6. Use a screwdriver with a towel wrapped around the tip to clean hard to reach corners. 7. Dry off with a clean soft towel

    Make sure that you store your cleaning supplies in a clean and dry place. It is important that your storage space does not fluctuate wildly in temperature as that may interfere with the cleaning solutions and their effectiveness.
