The Ultimate Life Hack For Hard To Open Windows:) 

Solution: Apply wax. Before you do, remove and wash tracks.

I used WD-40 Dry lube. Much cheaper than wax paper and it has so many other uses. But thanks for sharing. I always like your videos.

When I had the glass replaced in most of my vinyl windows, the pros used silicone spray on the tracks and that made all my windows open and close easily.

Great tip . If I do it then I would make it easier for my son to be able to sneak out without me hearing him open the window 🤔😄

i would use this trick when i worked in retail. we would rub wax paper on all of the hanging bars so the hangers would slide and not squeak when customers were moving the clothes around

My dad would do this on the old wood double hung windows!! Worked great

I personally always use a candle. It’s great for drawers too 👍🍺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I find the best solution is to have someone else do it for me.

"if you don't have windows, your home kinda sucks." LMAO. this is true.

Thank you Daniel San .., wax on … no wax off.

You can use a candle or soap bar also. Good idea on the paper, some elements

Thank you!! For years, opening my window brought me to tears

‘If you don’t have windows your house kinda sucks’….🤣🤣🤣🤣

Woah I can't really believe this worked so well. My wife was ready to have someone come and replace the entire window.

You're living up to your page name with the bloopers. That was a great tip tho... I just did it and worked like a dream .... thx!

Nice little pro tip right there 👊

I cleaned the track and used cold candle wax worked perfect for me.

I read a comment somewhere else mentioning powdered graphite, it’s in a tube and available most places and fairly inexpensive. I’m going to try both versions..wax paper and graphite. House we bought had vinyl replacements and they’re all different sizes and I swear I have a couple that look to have been forced into a too small of an opening. The way everything has been done here certainly was done w less experience and very small amounts of money. It’s a charming home though..my very first.

Living near the beach, we used Surf Wax for the same purpose. Worked fairly well for couple weeks

I use silicone spray and it works like a charm!

Lemon pledge works well too.

Hahaha I love your sense of humor 😂😂😂 good jokes here

My window installers always recommended Spray Silicone. I have never heard of using the wax/wax paper. I wonder if you have tried a combination of wax/wax paper And Silicone spray? Would that give an additive effect? Thx!

Beeswax would do the job. But even better than that would be silicone spray. Although, this will probably only work if wooden windows have been painted.

Would a very thin application of paste wax work well?

Video opens: If you don’t have windows, your home sucks. Video closes.

Thumbs up Funny Man. Thanks

Pretty cool! Thanks. When did you say to "hit it a couple times" do you mean to do it a couple times consecutively or wait a week or two before hitting it again? And can you keep using the same wax paper over and over, or should it be a new piece each time you do it?

Bar of soap works well also first clean the tracks, then run the soap though the tracks.

Old timers told me just use leftover bar soap, they did on all their wooden drawers and even door hinges

My fiancé and I just purchased a home in December, and the windows are old wood framed windows. Only one opens, and I believe they were painted shut, or they're just frozen. How do I get them open without breaking them? I feel like I need to open with all my might, but it feels like they will break. Please help! LOL

Looks pretty simple. Does it work better than Jigaloo, and how long does it last? I’m always fighting with my sliding windows, especially in the winter.

Nora! 💕 🐕

neat trick

What if someone lives in a hollow tree trunk? Asking for a friend...

Great video bud!!! for everything that doesn't want to move i use WD-40 XD, i have a question bud, if there is only 3 tools you could keep, what tools would it be? and have a great weekend bud!!!

Lol. So funny. Thanks for the tip

Can we use grease on the tracks

Thats awesome

Take a giant spoonful of Crisco and…oh wait. Nevermind. Don’t do that.

that's baking paper isn't it? If only I had sliding windows with that problem! We have windows that have the handle mechanism that blocks and I will have to find how to fix that

How long does it last?

What about screens? I have many that are just too hard to open.

You know, there are a lot of people that don’t have silicone spray, a candle and other things in their house, but they do have wax paper

I guess it works for me as well

So you put wax on the contact points ...

Why not use candle wax?

I have a different idea. The best way to fix a sticking window is to throw a hammer through it. That's a permanent solution, whereas just waxing the track is temporary, because the wax may eventually wear away.

Back end of a candle.

I do it with a candle. Just rub it on the tracks.

Can u do this with a sliding glass door

Ever try this on a sliding glass door? I'm going to go try it.

😍

I have windows in my house!

Cmon Nora, you didn't even offer to help.

Been using silicone spray for years. Easier and faster.

Couldn't you just get candle wax and use that?

looking at my double hung vinyl windows .... hmmm

This doesnt work for any of the windows i find hard to open. Once I get in then this would work. I wouldnt care then.
