To clean your window tracks, you will need:
An old toothbrush
Distilled vinegar
Baking soda
Paper towel
Rag
Butter knife
Directions:
Step 1: Sprinkle some baking soda over the window tracks, paying close attention to the worst parts (usually the corners).
Step 2: Pour a little bit of vinegar over the baking soda. You will notice it beginning to bubble.
Step 3: Let it sit for about five to ten minutes.
Step 4: Use the toothbrush to scrub at the gunk, working it towards the center.
Step 5: Use the paper towel to wipe up all of the gunk and discard it in the trash.
Step 6: Wet the rag and give the window tracks another wipe down.
Step 7: Cover the edge of the butter knife with the rag and use it to clean out the cracks and crevices.
Step 8: Give the tracks one final wipe down and you’re done!
