Examine the windowsill and track.

Step 3: Level of Cleaning

If very dirty:

1. Use a dry-cleaning toothbrush to loosen dirt and debris.
2. Vacuum up dirt using the brush attachment.
3. Spray with an all-purpose cleaner and allow the product to sit for a few moments to loosen the remaining dirt.
4. Use a cleaning toothbrush to agitate the product and lift out the dirt from the sills and tracks.
5. Use a paper towel to break up and wipe up the product and dirt, being sure not to regrind it into the sill or track.
