Default Re: Cleaning Curtains

You can rid the curtains of the stains. use a damp cloth and wipe down the area. after it dries, get a suede brush and brush the areato remove the crystals. you should then re-treat the area with Flamex, or some other flame proofing compound. Sometimes just re-flame proofing the area will dissolve the crystals and reincorporate the excess salts into the curtain material.
