Cleaning Pencil Stains From Vinyl Windows
For vinyl windows, you can use a few different household solutions. Try combining equal parts water and white vinegar and dip a cloth in the solution, then rub the cloth on the stain. Another option is applying a paste made from baking soda and water. Rub this paste into the stain with a damp cloth and let it sit for 30 minutes before wiping away.
Cleaning Pencil Stains From Metal Windows
For metal windows, you can use a steel wool pad dipped in rubbing alcohol to scrub away pencil stains. Make sure to use a light pressure when scrubbing to avoid damaging the metal window.
Cleaning Pencil Stains From Glass Windows
For glass windows, use a solution made from equal parts vinegar and water. Dip a cloth in solution, squeeze out any excess liquid, and rub it into the stain. If the stain is still present, you can use a glass-cleaning product and rub it into the mark until it disappears.
General Tips for Cleaning Pencil Stains
- If the stain is still present after cleaning, repeat the process until it has been removed.
- Always test any cleaning solution in an inconspicuous area before using it on the entire window.
- Avoid using any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the window.
