How to Clean Shutters to Make Them Look Like New


 

Shutters are essential decorative elements in a home. They help provide privacy, regulate light, and enhance the aesthetics of both interior and exterior spaces.

However, shutters are among the most dirty items in the home, which is why they need to be cleaned regularly. Below, we'll explain how to clean shutters quickly.

The best way to clean shutters is also the simplest: with warm water and soap

To clean shutters, regardless of their material, you need a microfiber cloth, a brush, liquid soap, warm water, and baking soda.

Before you begin cleaning the shutters, close them and remove all dust with a brush. You can also use a microfiber cloth or, if possible, a vacuum cleaner.

 

How to clean each type of shutter: plastic, aluminum, wood, PVC...

  • Plastic . If they can be dismantled, it's best to take them to the bathroom and wash them thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
  • Wood . To clean them, you can use a mixture of equal parts water and vinegar. Avoid chemicals, which can be very aggressive.
  • Aluminum . They can be cleaned like plastic ones, taking great care not to let them rust.
  • PVC . In this case too, we recommend washing them with soap and water, preferably liquid Marseille soap.
