The Best Way To
Clean Window
Blinds
Whatever type of blind you have from roller blinds to
vertical blinds the best way to keep them clean is by
regular dusting. There are several ways of doing this
including:
Gently wipe your blind with a warm damp cloth.
Using an e-cloth or microfibre cloth will remove even
more dust and dirt. These can often be used dry or
damp.
Ostrich Feather Dusters are great for a quick dust.
How To Clean
A Roller Blind
Roll your blind fully down to the window sill.
Use your vacuum cleaner with an
appropriate soft brush attachment to remove
any dust from the blind.
If your blind needs more cleaning, you can
wipe it with a sponge or cloth and warm
soapy water.
Leave it down until it is fully dry.

How To Clean A
Venetian Blind
Quick Clean
Close your Venetian blinds so that all the slats are flat
and then wipe the blinds with a cloth or feather duster.
Deep Clean
Wipe every slat individually with a warm damp cloth.
Wipe the stubborn marks with soapy water using your
usual washing-up detergent or mix a cleaning solution
of 50% water and 50% vinegar. The vinegar will
not damage your blind but will remove sticky or greasy
marks.
Cleaning Very Dirty Venetian Blinds
Place a large cloth or old towel at the bottom of your bath to prevent scratches.
Fill your bath with warm water and a suitable cleaning solution such as washing-up
liquid or white vinegar.
Leave the blinds to soak. Depending on how dirty they are, you can leave them for
half an hour to several hours.
Wipe any marks with a cloth that haven’t been removed by the soaking process.
Rinse with clean cold
