FAQs
How often should I clean the blind duster?
It's recommended to shake off dust after each use. For thorough cleaning, hand wash the microfibre head when it appears visibly dirty or its dust-capturing ability diminishes, and allow it to air dry completely.
Can this duster be used on wet blinds?
No, the duster is designed for dry dusting. Using it on wet blinds may cause the dust to clump and smear, reducing its effectiveness and potentially damaging the microfibre.
What materials is the duster made of?
The duster is made from Microfibre and Polypropylene (PP).
What is the size of the duster?
The duster measures approximately 21cm in length.
Can I wash the entire duster in a washing machine?
No, only the microfibre head should be hand-washed. The entire unit is not designed for machine washing.
Will this duster work on wood or metal Venetian blinds?
Yes, it is suitable for both wood and metal Venetian blinds, provided they have the standard slat design.
Troubleshooting
Duster is not picking up much dust.
Ensure the microfibre is clean and dry. If it's heavily soiled, hand wash it and allow it to air dry completely. Check that you are using the duster correctly by gliding it between the slats.
Duster feels too stiff to move between slats.
The blinds might be very dirty, or the duster may need gentle manipulation. Try cleaning the blinds in smaller sections or slightly adjust the angle of the duster.
The duster's plastic handle feels loose.
Inspect the connection between the handle and the duster head. If it is still under warranty, consider contacting the retailer for a replacement. For minor looseness, a small amount of strong adhesive might offer a temporary fix, but this is not recommended for long-term durability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No assembly is required. The Venetian Blind Duster is ready to use out of the packaging.
Compatibility: This duster is best suited for standard Venetian blinds (horizontal slats). It may not be effective on vertical blinds, roller blinds, or pleated shades.
Care: To maintain optimal performance, periodically remove accumulated dust from the microfibre material. Gently shake the duster outdoors. For a deeper clean, the microfibre head can be hand-washed with mild soap and water. Allow it to air dry completely before storing or next use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing.
