Learning to use a squeegee properly and quickly, is just a matter of practice. The professional way of using a squeegee, is done in what is called "butterfly method".

Now you simply start with the right corner of the squeegee in the upper left corner of the window and start moving the squeegee to the right side of the window in a vertical position.

Now, you lower the right corner of the squeegee as you lower the squeegee down the glass and move the whole thing vertically back to the left side of the window.

Before you get back to the left side of the window, you start to lower the upper left corner of the squeegee, then move the whole thing in a vertical position back to the right side of the window. Practice and soon you will be doing it like a pro.

Just keep repeating this process until you get to the bottom of the window. You will want to use a dry towel to wipe the water from the perimeter of the window and the window sill.

There, that's the butterfly method and you will learn how to do it and get it done quickly by practicing it. You could start out by simply moving the squeegee in straight lines from the top to the bottom and overlapping each stroke by one or two inches.

This will work too. Another little tip is to wipe off the corner of the squeegee that overlaps the dry side, with your towel. If you find any dirt or debris on a window that seems to be stuck to the glass. Then you would use a razor scraper before or during the cleaning of the window.

The main thing you need to know about a razor scraper that is used on glass, is to never dry scrape with it. Always put some liquid on the glass, in the area where you are going to use the razor scraper.

Always wet scrape or you could scratch the glass. You could apply, some of your window cleaning solution or spray some of your glass cleaning solution on the area where you will be using the razor scraperfirst. Either one would work just fine.

If you are going to be cleaning small square shaped window panes, you will clean them by simply using your spray bottle solution and some paper towels instead of a squeegee.
