WINDOW TREATMENTS
- Mini Blinds
Dusting:
Regular dusting will maintain the appearance of the mini-blinds. Keep aluminum blinds looking their
best by periodically wiping them with a soft cloth or a dusting mitt. By tilting the slats down, not quite
closed, most of the top surface of each slat can be cleaned. Blinds may be cleaned while hanging in
place using this method.
Vacuuming:
For deeper cleaning, vacuum gently with a soft brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner.
Compressed Air or Hair Dryer (non-heat setting):
Blow dust off each slat. Dust will be air-borne using this method so ventilate the motorhome.
Spot-Cleaning:
Spot-clean shades and blinds using a soft cloth or a moistened sponge with lukewarm water. Add
mild detergent, if needed. Blot gently to avoid creasing. In a dusty environment, the blinds may need to
be cleaned regularly using a sponge or dampened soft cloth. Use warm (not hot) water and a mild
detergent. The mild detergent cannot contain abrasives. Rinse the blinds using a clean cloth and water
to prevent water spots. Place a towel directly under the blinds to absorb water that might drip down.
Ultrasonic cleaning:
Professional ultrasonic cleaning may be preferred.
Day/Night Shades
Guidelines for care and maintenance of polyester blended day/night shades:
• Leave Day-Night shades in the UP position when not in use to help the shades hold their
shape.
• String tension for the shades should be equal. The tension can be adjusted if the shades
will not remain up.
Dusting:
Vacuum with a brush attachment, or use a dusting tool, on a regular basis.
Cleaning:
A dry foam cleaner may be used for soil and dirt removal. Follow all directions on the contain-
er or a cleaning solution of ¼ ounce clear liquid soap to 8 ounces water.
NOTE:
Do not use colored liquid soap as a stain may appear when fabric dries.
