13 Aug How to Wash Zebra Blind

Zebra blinds are one of the newest curtains for interior decoration. These sheer shades, like other fabric curtains, need periodic cleaning and washing. Of course, most people find Zebra blind washing a challenge. But you should know that these curtains are straightforward to clean. So stay tuned to teach you how to wash these curtains.

Washing the zebra blind

you can use zebra blinds in different house parts; they may absorb different pollution depending on the environment and conditions. The kitchen curtains attract the highest percentage of dust and pollution. The right time to wash this curtain is seasonally or every six months.

The importance of cleaning zebra blinds

As you know, the zebra blind is made up of the tour and cloth, which are two parallel and vertical parts. Due to the structure of this curtain, dust and pollution sit on it, and after a while, it becomes dirty. Periodically and timely washing of these sheer shades can prevent allergies, home sensitivity, dust and pollution.

 Different washing methods

Zebra blinds can’t be washed in the washing machine like other curtains because the lining and the fabric texture are lost. Instead, you can easily clean your carpet with a steamer or sponge and a carpet shampoo solution. Here are some ways to wash them.

 Weekly cleaning

Washing Zebra curtains weekly or monthly doesn’t require opening the entire curtain and bases. You can easily do it at the installation site. To wash the curtain weekly or monthly, the first step is to clean the curtain surface. Open the curtain entirely, dust the curtain surface from both top and bottom with a vacuum cleaner or a napkin. Finally, it would help if you used a steam cleaner or carpet shampoo. 

Using steam cleaner 

In this method, use the steam cleaner and wash the curtain from top to bottom gently and carefully. Make sure the steam temperature and the steam don’t damage the fabric.

Using carpet shampoo

In this method, dissolve some carpet shampoo or detergent in water to dilute the solution. Then dip a piece of sponge or cloth in the prepared solution and rub it on the zebra blind’s surface. Finally, rinse the curtain with a clean, damp cloth or sponge. Be careful not to dilute the prepared solution too much as it will be a little difficult to clean the foam and detergent from the curtain.

Seasonal washing

If you did a weekly cleaning, you will no longer need to do seasonal washing. But sometimes, the amount of dust and fat on the curtain surface is so high that your fabric’s colour is darkened, and you can’t clean it previously. In this case, you must open your zebra blind from the foundations and wash it like a carpet.

First, to wash the zebra blind with this method, open the curtain’s base and put it on a flat surface. Dissolve the carpet or a detergent solution in the water, then dip the sponge into the material and drag slowly on the screen. After cleaning, rinse the curtain with water, so the curtain is well cleaned. Finally, hang it to dry. 

Nano spray curtain protector

Another way to keep the zebra blind clean is to use a nanospray that eliminates the need to wash it periodically. Nano spray protects the curtain from the penetration of liquids such as tea, syrup, coffee and other liquids and the formation of stains and grease. It creates an invisible thin, untouchable and odourless layer around the curtain texture. In this process, your curtain fibre cover will still be able to breathe and pass air. You can use Nano-protective spray for all types of fabric curtains. The reduction of washing times and the lack of chemical detergents increase the zebra blind lifespan.
