Abstract

The invention is used as a tool for cleaning horizontal channels in window sections that slide relative to each other. It is well known that such channels are very difficult to clean because of the close proximity of the individual window sections unless the whole window combination is taken apart. The tool consists of a thin blade having at one end thereof a hook to scrape away dirt that is lodged in the bottom of the channel. The other end of the blade has various brush elements mounted thereon that sweep the dirt or debris from out of the channel when the tool is slipped in between the windows.
