How To Keep Your Blinds Clean On The Central Coast

Ron Ayton Curtains, Blinds & Shutters • June 26, 2020

One of the biggest problems with blinds is that they can collect a lot of dust and be a complete pain to clean. In order to regularly clean the blinds, whether they are fabric, PVC, metal or wooden, you have to dedicate a lot of time and effort that most busy people cannot afford. In order to avoid this problem when you buy blinds for your Central Coast home, you need to take the time to learn how to keep different types of blinds clean, and we at Ron Ayton Curtains, Blinds & Shutters are here to help you do so.

Cleaning slat blinds

Also known as Venetian blinds, these are an extremely popular style that can be difficult to clean. They can gather dust by themselves, it seems, and it makes it hard to clean them effectively before dust starts to settle on the slats again. The best option is to clean them using a specialist cloth that can be wiped over the surface, lifting dust rather than spreading it.

Fabric blinds

A problem with fabric blinds is that they tend to collect dust at the bottom of the pleat, meaning that you have to take extra measures to clean it off. In this case, you may want to use a vacuum to help you pick up all the dust. At Ron Ayton Curtains, Blinds & Shutters, we recommend that if you do use a machine, you should have it on the lowest setting, and use it with a brush or narrow extension.

Hanging blinds

Hanging blinds, or vertical blinds, need to be cared for using brushes or sweeping cloths, wiping down the edges and the main body of the blinds to keep it completely clean. You may also find that you can unclip these blinds to help you get a better angle to make sure they are clean.

Things to remember

If you want to make sure that your blinds are clean, then you have to take the time to regularly dust them. The more you care for your blinds, the longer they will last.
