Blinds are a popular window covering, adding decorative punch while also protecting privacy and allowing you to control the light entering the room. Here are some tips and tricks on cleaning your window blinds in Nairobi, Kisumu, Eldoret Kakamega Kenya.
Fabric Blinds (Pleated, Roman, Roller and Cellular)
Thoroughly vacuum the blinds with the dust brush of your vacuum cleaner. If your vacuum cleaner has a low setting, use it to decrease the possibility of damaging the blinds.
Another option is to use a blow dryer set on cool. With it, you can blow away dirt or bugs caught in the honeycombs, rolls or creases.
If fabric blinds are stained, dampen a microfiber cloth and blot the stain away. Use a little fabric detergent for set-in stains. Let the blinds dry completely before raising them. If they’re badly stained, take them to a dry cleaner.
Wood Blinds
Wipe wood blinds with a damp cloth dipped in vinegar. Not only does vinegar cut through dirt (even grease), it’s also a natural antimicrobial. Wipe the blinds dry immediately to prevent warping or discoloring. Condition them with a wood conditioner to protect them against sun damage.
Faux-Wood Blinds
Clean faux-wood blinds using the same method as wood blinds, but skip the wood conditioner. Instead, when they’ve been cleaned, run a fabric softener sheet over each slat. This will prevent dust build-up for several months. When the magical dust-repelling properties have stopped working, simply wipe the blinds with a new cloth.
Vertical Blinds
Clean vertical blinds using the same method as for faux-wood blinds, unless they’re fabric, and then use the directions for cleaning fabric blinds. For a quick pick-me-up between cleanings, use a lint roller on the slats – it will quickly pick up cobwebs and dust.
Venetian Blinds
It’s easiest to clean aluminum and vinyl blinds by washing them in the tub in a little bit of Dawn and warm water. Let them soak then scrub them gently with a sponge – a sponge mop makes particularly quick work of this task.
