Care and Cleaning Aluminum Blinds
As with any window blinds, you should regularly clean your aluminum blinds to prevent the buildup of dust and dirt on the slats and inside the moving parts of the headrail.
If your blinds have a light accumulation of dirt and dust, you may be able to simply spot-clean them, while blinds with heavy mold and mildew accumulation may require more thorough cleaning.
In the case of more extensive cleaning, a sponge dipped in warm water mixed with a mild soap or detergent can help lift caked-on debris. When you clean, be careful not to put too much pressure on your blinds, as this can cause them to bend or even break. Always wipe blinds dry. Install, then pull the blind fully down and open the slats for additional air drying.
A once-weekly feather dusting is wise to keep your blinds looking good and operating smoothly for years, or even decades.
