This double-sided magnetic cleaner is a practical tool for single-pane windows, specifically those with a thickness of 3mm to 8mm. The unit features an ABS plastic shell and an internal sponge reservoir, which helps keep the cleaning pads wet during use. This reduces the need to stop and re-spray the glass, allowing for a more continuous cleaning workflow.
The tool includes a 2-meter braided polyester safety tether to help manage the exterior half. For safety in high-rise settings, ensure the tether's plastic clip is attached to a sturdy indoor point. The integrated synthetic rubber squeegee is designed to follow the cleaning pads, removing excess moisture and helping to provide a clear finish on standard glass.
Practical Usage Tips
- Best used on single-pane glass; not intended for thick double-glazing.
- Internal sponges hold cleaning solution to simplify the process.
- Replacement felt pads are widely available for long-term maintenance.
- Triangular shape helps in reaching corners of the window frame.
Specifications indicate that significant physical force may be required to move the magnets across dry glass. Using a generous amount of cleaning surfactant or soapy water is recommended to help the unit glide smoothly. Because the ABS housing is not UV-stabilized, storing the tool in a dark cupboard rather than on a sunny windowsill will help maintain the plastic's integrity over time.
If your windows are double-paned and require a much stronger magnetic pull, consider the Tyroler Glider D4 for a more powerful connection.
