General Cleaning

  1. Close your Luminette Privacy Sheers by pulling the cables on the side of the sheers.

  2. Dust the sheers thoroughly with a feather duster. Wear latex gloves to keep your hands clean and oil from your hands off of the sheers.

  3. Open the sheers to expose the other side. Dust the other side of the sheers with the feather duster.

Removing Grime Buildup

  1. Close your Luminette Privacy Sheers.

  2. Start vacuuming, using a hand-held vacuum cleaner, in the upper left-hand corner of the sheers.

  3. Move across the sheers using short strokes while you move the sheers with your hands. Continue vacuuming your sheers until you reach the bottom.

  4. Open the sheers to expose the other side. Vacuum the other side of the sheers with short strokes across the sheers until you reach the bottom.

    Hand-held vacuum cleaners won't pull or stretch your Luminette Privacy Sheers. Do not use a regular vacuum cleaner or one with a brush attachment. Regular vacuum cleaners contain too much suction and could damage the sheer fabric.

Removing Stains

  1. Apply 2 tbsp. of a laundry pre-treatment solution to a soft cloth or rag.

  2. Hold the sheer panel containing a stain with another soft cloth or rag. Blot the stain with the pre-treatment solution-soaked cloth or rag. Do not rub the spot--this will push the stain into the sheer.

  3. Let the area dry. Apply 3 tbsp. of distilled or bottled water to a clean cloth or rag. Blot the stain clean with the water-soaked cloth or rag. Let the sheer air dry.

Tips

To remove wrinkles and creases, apply 1/2 cup of distilled or bottled water to a clean cloth or rag. Hold the sheer panel containing a wrinkle or crease with another soft cloth or rag. Blot the wrinkle or crease with the water-soaked cloth or rag. Let the sheer air dry.

For professional cleaning of your Luminette Privacy Sheers, contact a cleaning service that uses an injection/extraction method of cleaning. This method injects a cleaning solution into stains on your sheers then extracts the solution.

Warnings

Do not use electrostatic cleaning sheets to clean your Luminette Privacy Sheers. These sheets will damage the sheer fabric.

Do not dry clean your Luminette Privacy Sheers. Dry cleaning will damage the sheers.
