To clean aluminium blinds, always use ordinary soft clean dust cloths, chemically treated dust cloths, vacuum cleaner brush attachments, or other available ordinary household aids. The paint surface of these sorts of blinds slats is quite smooth so therefore dust is easily brushed off if they are cleaned at regular intervals.

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.

Always make sure that you measure your windows with a steel tape. Never use a cloth tape. Measure sizes to the nearest eighth of an inch to ensure accuracy. Windows are not usually perfectly square...so don't worry - you probably won't notice!

Pleated blinds are arguably the best looking conservatory blind. They are available in a huge range of fabrics and colours and look modern.
