EUROLUX BLINDS CARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR OUR
CANVAS, MESH & ACRYLIC BLINDS
FABRICS
:
As manufacturers of quality outdoor blinds, our fabrics are designed and made to resist the effects
of all weather conditions. Whilst controls are in place to avoid weave flaws reaching the customer,
occasionally these do occur. It is more apparent in light and translucent fabrics. It is vital that
customers assess the suitability of the fabric chosen for their particular application. It is important
that thorough care and maintenance is employed to ensure satisfactory performance of your
Eurolux Blinds.
WHEN GOODS ARE RECEIVED
:
Upon receipt of your blind, extend the blind fully and thoroughly inspect to ensure it meets your
expectations and matches the order. During fabrication of the blind (either Mesh or Acrylic), some
minor wrinkles can occur in the fabric. If this is apparent on full extension of the blind, do not role it
back. To remove the wrinkles, simply keep the blind extended for a number of days exposed to full
sun. For Canvas blinds, extend and wet the surface using a domestic hose at a moderately high
water pressure for several minutes until evenly saturated and then expose the blind to full sun until
completely dry.
TO HELP EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR PRODUCT
:
•
To ensure proper function of the blind, fully extend blind on a regular basis ;
•
Roll up only when blind is clean and dry;
•
Roll up completely if high winds or storms are expected so no undue strain is placed on the
fittings and mountings;
•
Fold scallop back against blind fabric and roll up so it is fully protected from the weather
etc.;
•
Roll up blind when doing maintenance work nearby (eg. cleaning gutters, mowing &
trimming lawns);
•
Pull blind down evenly standing from a centre position and use pull down stick if necessary;
•
To remove mildew, dirt and grime from blind, brush dry fabric with a soft brush (DO NOT
SCRUB) and/or wet surface with domestic hose) and dry in the sun;
•
IMPORTANT – remove mildew as soon as it appears;
•
To avoid stains etc. remove any organic matter promptly from surface (leaves, grass, bird
droppings or vehicle exhaust)
