PRODUCT INFORMATION MANUAL
SECTION: 12 LUMINETTE PRIVACY SHEERS
Cleaning Procedures
The fabric, header, and vane fabric are 100% polyester. They are resilient, anti-static, and dust resistant.
Periodic cleaning is recommended to help keep Luminette
®
Privacy Sheers looking like new. For all cleaning
applications, fabrics should remain hanging to minimize handling, wrinkling, or puckering.
IMPORTANT:
Disposable gloves should be worn when handling fabrics.
CAUTION:
Keep all cleaning solutions away from the SofTrak
™
headrail system. Never immerse the
headrail.
Routine Cleaning
■
Use a feather duster for regular light dusting.
■
For more thorough dust removal, a hand-held vacuum with low suction may be used. When vacuuming,
avoid pulling or stretching the fabric.
➤
Start in the upper left corner and work across the fabric using short horizontal strokes while
steadying the fabric with your free hand. Each stroke should be approximately the width of two to
three vanes. Do not use long horizontal or vertical strokes, as these actions will crease the fabric.
Continue to the bottom of the fabric.
CAUTION:
Do not use a brush attachment or rigorous vacuuming since either could distort the fabric.
Electrostatic Cleaning
CAUTION:
Do not use electrostatic cleaning devices on any Luminette product.
Spot-Cleaning
To reduce the potential for permanent staining, spots should be treated and cleaned as soon as possible
with a clothing stain pre-treatment solution.
■
Apply the pre-treatment solution to a clean, white cloth.
■
Support the fabric from behind using another clean, dry cloth. Clean the spot using a gentle blotting
action. Avoid rubbing the fabric since any abrasive action may cause it to distort.
■
Let the area air dry.
■
After the area is dry, remove excess solution by blotting it with distilled or bottled water applied to
another clean cloth.
Deep Cleaning
For deep cleaning, both injection/extraction and ultrasonic cleaning methods are recommended.
CAUTION:
Do not dry clean Luminette fabrics.
