6. Care & Cleaning:

Regular dusting with a feather duster or vacuum cleaner brush will keep EcoSmart Insulating shades clean and bright for years.  Most spills or stains can be wiped off easily with a damp sponge and mild foam upholstery cleaner. The shade is to be made entirely from components that are not affected by moisture or UV degradation so that it can be entirely immersed in warm water with a mild detergent for over all cleaning. The shade can be cleaned Ultrasonically for more serious cleaning.
