I did one similar last summer.

As said earlier, remove all the secondary double glazing and make sure you know which panes came from which windows.

When cleaning, make sure you have plenty of old cloths or towels to soak up all the dirty water or you'll be making stains on carpets or wooden floors.

If you are leaning them against internal walls to clean, make sure you have protection at the point of contact, you'll either damage the wallpaper or scuff the paint.

It took us around 22 man hours to do 72 large windows, both sides of secondary units and inside and out of main windows. They were absolutely plastered in fly poop and dead flies everywhere.

Good luck

thank you

You're welcome.

I forgot to mention, I just put down plenty of protection on the floor and used an applicator (just damp) and squeegee to clean the secondary double glazing units.

They were that dirty, there was no way a light spray and rub with microfibres was going to get them up to scratch.

they are not very dirty, what do you mean by light spray?

Some people use a household squirty spray bottle, filled with your normal mix of solution for cleaning windows trad. Just spray a light mist and microfibres off. No running water involved with this method.

good advice from sunshine - i also take a vacuum (Henry) because usually you get a lot of dead insects
and flaking paint behind the units and it's easier to clean after vac'ing the debris and then you can
clean up after yourself ( essential when the custy has £80.00 sq meter carpet or hand woven Persian rugs    )

i have an old manor with leaded windows and double glazing panels to clean (inside)
I can remove each panel, what is the best way to clean them(both side)?
many thanks
Ben

I think we call this secondary glazing. Squeegee both sides. Spray and microfibre lead lights.
