If you want to wash aluminium blinds, use a damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent or cleaner. Use warm or cold water - never use hot water. Make sure that you tilt the slats. Protect the floor or sill from excess water. The blind can also be taken down, placed in a bath tub of mild soapy water, then rinsed clean, wiped dry, or allowed to dry completely in the open air.
To make the most of your blind choose accessories to match the colour and fabric. For example, in your bedroom, try to co-ordinate the sheets on the bed and the vases on the bedside table.
