Care and tips for Stick & Fit
Stick & Fit is a low-maintenance product that hangs flat against the window and therefore suffers little during normal use. With a soft cloth or brush and a few simple points to bear in mind, the pleated blind will stay neat for a long time.
- Carefully remove dust with a soft cloth or soft brush
- Treat stains with a slightly damp cloth
- A dent or crease can often be restored by pushing the fabric pack together for 24 hours
Gently and without pressing hard
How to clean Stick & Fit
For normal care, a soft, dry cloth or a soft brush is usually enough. Work gently in the direction of the pleats and avoid pressing the fabric hard or deforming it.
2
Clean the profiles
The adhesive profiles and operating rails can be wiped with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Then dry them with a clean cloth.
3
Avoid harsh products
Do not use abrasive sponges, solvents, bleach or strong all-purpose cleaners. These can damage the fabric, colour or profiles.
4
Use little moisture
Never soak the fabric. A slightly damp cloth is enough for a local stain.
Treat locally
Carefully removing a stain
Treat a stain as locally as possible. Use a clean, slightly damp cloth and dab gently without rubbing hard.
Use little water
Only dampen the cloth slightly. The fabric must not become soaked.
Dab, don't scrub
Work gently and do not press hard. This keeps the structure of the fabric and the pleat intact as much as possible.
Leave to dry completely
Leave the pleated blind fully closed over the glass so that the fabric is unfolded and can dry properly.
Do not use heat
Do not use a hairdryer, steamer or direct heat to speed up drying.
Bathroom and humid rooms
Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture
Stick & Fit is not intended for constantly humid or poorly ventilated rooms. In a bathroom, the product can be used if the room is well ventilated and the fabric is not directly exposed to water or prolonged condensation.
1
Ventilate well
Make sure there is enough ventilation during and after showering, so that moisture leaves the room quickly.
2
No direct contact with water
Do not place the product where water drops or splashes land directly on the fabric.
3
Do not leave condensation
Let the fabric and the window dry properly and prevent the product from staying wet or damp for long periods.
Getting a pleat back into shape
Restoring a dent or crease in the fabric
A slight dent or deformed pleat can often be restored without replacing the fabric. Work carefully and then give the fabric pack time to regain its original shape.
1
Gently push the fabric back
Gently guide the damaged spot back with your fingers in the direction of the existing pleat. Do not pull or stretch the fabric.
2
Push the fabric pack together
Gently bring the operating rails towards each other so that the fabric folds neatly and evenly into the pack.
3
Leave it like this for 24 hours
Leave the folded fabric pack undisturbed for about 24 hours. The pleats will then often press the dent or crease completely out of the fabric.
4
Check the result calmly
Then open the product carefully. If the pleat has not yet fully recovered, repeat the treatment or send a photo for advice.
Looking good for a long time with normal use
Tips for everyday use
The risk of damage with Stick & Fit is relatively small, because the system sits flat against the window and has no loose operating cords. Careful operation is still important.
1
Operate wide products with two hands
Move the operating rail evenly and gently, so that the fabric and cords are loaded equally on both sides.
2
Never force it
If operation feels stiff or uneven, stop and check whether the product or a cord is being obstructed somewhere.
3
Keep sharp objects away
Avoid contact with jewellery, toys, pets or other objects that could catch in the fabric.
