Do not use solvents, bleach, abrasives, or cleaning methods that use heat to clean your vertical blinds. Instead, regular dusting or vacuuming with a soft brush attachment should be enough to keep your blinds clean and looking fresh. If your blinds become stained, use a damp sponge and mild detergent on the fabric, and rinse it thoroughly. NEVER immerse your blinds completely, and always allow them to dry fully before drawing them open. If you wish to use commercial spot cleaners, test them first on an inconspicuous area and allow the spot to dry to ensure the cleaner won’t affect the fabric.
