With all this information on buying the best wood blinds for your house, we need some information on how to keep these blinds in good shape. To continue to enjoy your investment, correct blind cleaning is required.It may seem simple, but the largest enemy to wood blinds is dust. You need to have a good duster but lets get into some more preventive measures. No one desires to clean their blinds all day, so you need to work to keep them clean that's what will happen.
You're worst enemy is dust. To keep your blinds bright and clean, we need to dispose of that dust. First off is the straight forward rag or duster. To scrub the front of your wood blinds, angle the slats utterly down, and to wash the back, angle them up. This simple maintenance can be done weekly or monthly, as soon as you install your wood blinds. Feather dusters just spread the dust around your floor. Instead acquire a wool or magnetic duster which pulls the dust instead of scattering it.Use a vacuum. Just be careful and use the lighter brush extension. Simply go slat by slat to be sure you don't miss a spot.
If your blinds are in a kitchen or loo where smoke or water residue has built up along with the dust you could need a sturdier approach. Or maybe you just never cleaned your wood blinds and dust has piled up. In this example, use a cloth and wood cleaning agent. This agent might be water or a custom chemical from the hardware store. Just make sure it's not wax based or it may damage the clear coat sealant around the slats. Industrial quality kitchen cleaners can corrode wood and wood finishes, so remember, try a humid rag first before you bust out the heavy artillery. No matter what always wipe it dry after so that the liquid does not warp the wood.
The longer you wait between cleaning, the worse it is on the life of your wood blinds. If you have been waiting a considerable time the only alternative could be to take the blinds apart for thorough cleaning. Find an old sheet to lay your blinds on after taking them from the mounting. Use the ground as a back-pressure as you delicately but forcefully scrub the slats clean. Any cloth material is fine to scrub with, but don't forget, wax-based cleaners will just trap dust and seal it in!
