Cleaning motorized blinds
#1

Hi all, 

I’m guessing many of you have blinds similar to mine; the manufacturer is Somfy, they are motorized fabric horizontal blinds.  I’ll post a picture below. 

Occasionally, specks of dirt or (God forbid) dead bugs/flies get trapped inside the blinds.  In our six months of owning the coach, we’ve just kind of learned to live with it. Until today; that was my project. Long story short, I brought an air hose inside the coach and thought I’d give that a try. It works absolutely perfect. With about 30 pounds of air,  you can start in the middle of the shade and blow the particles out to either side.  It worked absolutely perfect! And I was surprised at how much stuff was actually trapped in each blind when I started looking at them in detail.
