Dry cleaning is a good process to avoid some fabrics shrink, lose color, distorted or damaged completely. It is usually a fairly expensive process when it is a professional and although there are ways to do it yourself, it is best to find someone to do so.

Clean the carpets, furniture, sofas, all kinds of upholstery and even clothing with this method, and although it is called “dry”, use a colorless liquid called PERC, which does the work to remove soil and stains. If you decide to use this method, I have some tips for dry cleaning:

* The first thing you should know is that it is best to call a professional to do dry cleaning, because the use of PERC can be toxic.
* Always check the fabric of what is going to clean dry clean resistant. Look for the label and if it asks you, even better.
* Dry clean ensures that you will remove dirt from dirt and dust, but if you have a huge spot somewhere with a special material, it is best to tell the special treatment and professional that made the spot if you know.
* Before the professional leave, or leave a store where you made the treatment, check that is clean and if any stain was removed.
* As the product is used to clean toxic, it is best that you just do not ride anything has been cleaned to dry in a closed car. If your house was cleaned a couch for example, if you can make the sun a little better, but then leaves plenty of fresh air to enter.

Secondly, we must take into account that the relationship he has with the light fabric is important since the final color will vary depending on whether it reflects or absorbs light. On the other hand, pay attention to resistance to sun exposed curtains. This purchase fabrics that do not fade over time and will not deform after washing beeches. You can choose fabrics like muslin and brocade, artificial fibers such as nylon. The most often bought are the chintz, the moire gingham, damask, gauze and lace.

Some ways to put curtains

For the bathroom window and gallery

With a cable as a bar, held up by metal supports, you can place the material, with shots and made through a few simple rings and metal clips. No tables and no frills you put this type of curtain in the bathroom window or in the bedrooms of children having access to the galleries. Is advised not to use this resource to other windows, it could get very dull.
For salon

This time, you can wear to work and buy a metal rod to place about 10 cm from the window. The fabric side curtains can be thicker than estor, and we suggest that you accompany your good taste to create bold solid colors coordinated with, or with patterned fabrics, whether in pictures or flowers, that if, consistent with upholstery of the chairs. The side curtains you can put on the bar 10 cm above the window. You can use to hang splints made with the same fabric as the curtains fastened with buttons. This is a very simple and economical. You can also use a ribbon that binds to the bar. Finally, if you like that side curtains do not fall directly into the soil can opt to place a tape as a clamp.
