Performing professional drapery cleaning in Massachusetts, one of the biggest ways that we see draperies permanently damaged is because of negligence. Frequent vacuuming is extremely important and is the first step to keeping draperies from permanent damage. Your draperies act like huge filters hanging on the walls and trap airborne soils. Leaving these soils on the fabric causes premature staining, especially when considering the accelerating effects of heat and light from the sun. When using the Green Mitt in our drapery cleaning service, we wring out as much moisture as possible. You will not see a color change because of a wetting reaction from the mitt when wiping your drapery material. Instead, the material should only be very lightly damp. A light sweeping motion is all that is needed to effectively transfer soils from drapery fabric into the microfibers in the Green Mitt.
