Intersection. 655-4411 CLEANING OUTfSIDE WINDOWS For many of us, cleaning outside windows means two things - wet sleeves from the cold water running dlown our arm and getting the lacider to fit windlows which are always at inconvenient heights. Fortunately, with the addition of a few convenient tools, you can now wash windows as high as 25 feet in the air quicky and easily while standing on the ground. Ail that is required is a Iightweight telescopoc aluminum pole, a window brush and a window squeegee - the same tools the prof essionals use. Simply 'fix a solution of Swvish Sparkle glass and wndow dieaner in water, app4y the solution to0 the window with the brush, rernove the brush from the friction fit pôle, attach the squeegee and squeegee the window dry. You wiIl have an enlire panel of streak free sparkling windows in Iess than 2 mninutes. And there's no tramrpling through flcMIer gardens, no wet sleeves and no falling off ladders. Ifs easy, inexpensive and the kit Lass a liftime. Corne on downt SWshClean-It Centre.
