Acetone is another, slightly stronger detergent (used for instance to remove nail polish) which removes paint more effectively.<\/li>\n<li>Do not use these products to clean the painted surfaces of wooden and aluminium elements. When cleaning glass, you should be careful not to let these substances spill on painted surfaces.<\/li>\n<li>After the use of solvents mentioned above, windows must be cleaned again with mild detergent and water.<\/li>\n<li>The putty material\/concrete attached on the glazing surface at the construction stage should be cleaned immediately.
