Blind Cleaning Tips – Must Know Hacks

Use a Microfibre Cloth

The most important part of cleaning any type of blind is using a microfibre cloth. This will help to pick up any dust or dirt that may be on the blinds without causing any damage. Simply wipe down each slat in a back and forth motion until they are all clean.

Vacuum & Upholstery Attachment

For an extra deep clean, one of our best blind cleaning hacks is vacuuming your blinds. Yep, you can vacuum your blinds using the upholstery attachment. This is especially effective for getting rid of any pet hair or stubborn lint that may be stuck in the slats. Just be sure to go slowly and steady so you don’t end up bending or breaking any of the slats – it’s important to use a light hand when is comes to giving your blinds a thorough clean.

White Vinegar & Warm Water

If your blinds are particularly dirty, you may need to give them a more thorough cleaning. For these blind cleaning hacks, you will need to mix together equal parts white vinegar and warm water in a bowl. Dip your microfiber cloth into the mixture and wring it out so that it is damp – not dripping wet. Wipe down each slat of the blind, moving from top to bottom. Rinse your cloth in the mixture as needed. Once you have finished cleaning all of the blinds, open them up fully and allow them to air dry completely before closing them again.

Next time you’re going to clean your blinds but you’re wanting to give them that extra touch of magic and shine, consider implementing our blind cleaning tips to ensure they come up looking as good as new.
