Hi everybody, would anybody have any idea of how to get stains out of blinds. It's a combination of fingermarks and marks left by flies. The blinds are white with a blackout finish. I tried cleaning them with a babywipe but had no effect. I am afraid to rub them hard/ try anything stronger in case I damage the finish.

Hi
if there is enough fabric, perhaps you could reverse them
the blind place near the NCT centre, little island has done this for me in the past at about 15 - 20 euro a blind
they look like new after

I used carpet stain remover not shampoo on mine and it worked a treat, just try it first in a small place that can't be seen, if it works do the whole thing.

There is a product that looks like a giant eraser, that I've seen used to get crayon off blinds. However that was in Australia, and I don't know if is available here; someone else might know.
