Cleaning Procedures

honeycomb shades are made of anti-static, dust-resistant fabric which
repels dirt and dust. For most honeycomb fabrics, the following cleaning options are available.
Dusting
■
Regular light dusting with a feather duster is all the cleaning that is needed in most
circumstances.
Vacuuming
CAUTION:
Do not vacuum Elan
®
fabrics.
■
For deeper cleaning, vacuum gently with a brush attachment.
Compressed Air/Hair Dryer (Cool Setting)
■
Use compressed air or a hair-dryer on a cool setting to blow dust and dirt off shades.
Spot-Cleaning
CAUTION:
Do not spot-clean Batiste Semi-Sheer, Elan, and Opalessence
™
fabrics.
■
Prepare a solution of warm water and a mild detergent.
■
Dampen a clean cloth in the solution and wring it out.
■
Dab the spot with the dampened cloth until it is gone. Do not rub the fabric.
■
Allow the shade to dry in the raised position.
Bathtub Cleaning/Water Immersion
CAUTION:
Do not immerse Batiste Semi-Sheer, Elan, India Silk, Meritage
™

Immerse the fabric in a basin or bathtub filled with warm water and a mild detergent. Never
immerse the bottom rail into the solution.

Before removing from the rinse water, fully raise the shade and tilt it to allow excess water
to drain off.

Dry the shade upside-down with the cells open.
