You're still going to have to rub and wipe it, so get the right tool for the job.

My old window cleaner let me into his secret. Fairy.

Reason for pressure washing and cleaning fluid, is it cannot be reached by hand to scrub  ::)

Bird crap right at the top  >:(

That's why they make tools for cleaning them. Believe it or not, you're not the first person to have to clean one.

As in not cleaning? Or leaving smear/dirty water marks?

If latter, you use a rubber blade, a bit like a windscreen wiper, to pull the water off, so it doesn't dry in situ. A bit like using a chamois on a car, if that makes sense.

If former, then if rubbing with a fixed sponge doesn't shift it, a toy pressure washer 3m away won't either.

Just buy half a litre of White Vinegar Window cleaner spray from Poundland, get on your hands and knees and use some elbow grease.
