Fauxwood Blinds
- Cleaning faux wood blinds can be a quick, easy process if done correctly. Depending on the amount of dust on your blinds, there are various ways to clean them. You can either use a feather duster, a soft cloth or vacuum with a brush attachment. You can also use a mild, non-abrasive cleaning product with warm water if they need heavier cleaning. Do not use hot water, however. You can easily dry them with a clean, dry soft cloth.
- It would be ideal to add this to your regular cleaning routine to avoid heavy dust build-up. Cleaning the blinds isn't something a lot of people think about on a regular basis, but doing so makes your cleaning routine a lot easier. It's also good for your allergies to get rid of that dust!
Real Wood Blinds
- Cleaning real wood blinds differs greatly from faux wood. You need to treat it like it's your wood furniture. While you can still use a brush attachment on your vacuum, a soft cloth or feather duster, you do not want to use water or any soap. Dust the blinds regularly; then on occasion, you can wipe them down with a soft cloth and a wood cleaner/polish or maintain the wood's beautiful finish.
Mini Blinds
- Cleaning your mini blinds is pretty easy, but sometimes a tedious task. But with vinyl mini blinds you definitely want to keep them clean, because dirt and dust tends to be pretty visible, and make your blinds look old. We recommend that you first open them and vacuum them using a brush attachment to remove the excess dust. Then close them; and you can either take them off the headrail and lay them flat on the ground (depends on how they're hung) or you can leave them hanging and go over them thoroughly with a soft damp cloth and a mild detergent. It's best to wipe them dry with a dry, soft cloth in order to wipe away any other residue.
