Finally A Tip To Clean Roller Shutters EASILY.

And There you go ! Your roller shutters are clean as on the first day :-)

Easy, fast and efficient, right?

And it only takes a few minutes.

I advise you to clean them at least twice a year, inside and out.

But the best is to wash them at each change of season.

Why should the shutters be washed?

We often forget, but these outdoor curtains get dirty quickly.

They are in contact with pollution, bad weather and moss that can settle on them.

Over time, they can deteriorate and wear out faster than expected.

Worse, they can jam, especially if they are electric.

Maintaining them is therefore also an opportunity to check that nothing is stuck between the slats.

Also take the opportunity to remove cobwebs with a vacuum cleaner.

And as with everything, don't let dirt get in!

Above all, never use an abrasive sponge so as not to scratch the surface of the shutters.

Guess what ? Dirty shutters can detract from the beauty of your home's facade. And that would be a shame!

How to maintain aluminum shutters

If you have aluminum closures, soapy water works very well to unclog them.

This is also an opportunity to clean the roller and the shutter slide.

But to make them even brighter, use lemon and baking soda.

Mix the two products, let the reaction take place and apply to the shutter slats for a few minutes.

Rinse and wipe.

How to maintain wooden shutters?

In general, the wood is varnished.

It is therefore important not to damage it by cleaning the seats.

Mix a little liquid Marseille soap in hot water.

Then, soak a soft sponge with this liquid and rub it on the wooden slats.

Rinse with clear water and dry well.

Perform this operation preferably on a sunny day so that the wood dries.

But avoid a day of heat wave or frost which could cause the wood to "blow up".

How to clean PVC shutters?

Although there are products to clean PVC, they are very expensive and very chemical. Very little for me!

Especially since there is a natural and really economical method:dishwashing liquid.

Put a squirt of washing up liquid in a bucket of hot water.

Then, clean the PVC with a soft sponge dipped in soapy water.

Rinse with vinegar water and pat dry.

The plastic is like new, all white and shiny. And it also works for PVC windows.
