In 2002, my husband and I moved into an apartment that had the biggest picture windows I had ever seen. Unfortunately, the windows also came with the dirtiest, filthiest
blinds I had ever seen. At one time, the blinds had been a beautiful, sparkling white. When Gary and I moved in, they were brown. The blinds were to wide to take down and soak in the bathtub. It took me 6 hours to
clean each blind. When we left in 2004, the blinds were still clean.
If you have not cleaned your blinds since you moved into your abode, now is the time to do it. Now that winter is here, you no longer have any excuses not to get out the spray bottle and the Ivory soap and clean those blinds. With Christmas right around the corner, you'll want your house as clean as possible, so
hop on over to DoItYourself.com and learn how to clean your blinds and shades.
Once you get the blinds clean the first time, it is a simple task to keep them clean. My landlord was amazed at how clean the blinds were after I cleaned them, and how bright the rooms became. If only he had compensated me for cleaning his blinds!

Aluminium blinds are fairly rugged and versatile. you can wash, dust or vacuum the blinds without causing damage. The smooth surface ont he majority of our Aluminium blinds makes them ideal for regular dusting, cutting down on the need for heavy cleaning.
ReplyTo dust the blind, use a soft clean cloth or duster and tilt the slats to wipe clean. If you are using a vacuum, attach the brush head and tilt the slats (being careful not to bend them).
To wash aluminium blinds, use a damp cloth or sponge. For stubborn stains add a mild detergent to your cleaning utensil. You can also take the blind down and soak in a tub of mild soapy water and then rinse clean and wipe dry - or dry completely in the open air.
