the nonslip "stuff" under rugs - can you wash it?

[InVeryveryBadTaste]

just that really! Was thinking of doing it on a cool gentle wash as dont want it to shrink or loose its "stickiness"

no idea where LL got it and cant see any washing instructions on it.

OOh and while we're at it - vertical blinds slats? Best way to wash them? Or should I just leave them?

:) thank you

Yes, cool gentle wash with minimal detergent, or do it by hand in the bath. Blind slats need dusting not washing, I think, or a wipe over with a well wrung (e)cloth. You can get special blind dusters like this

aw thank you thingamajig, unfortunately the slats are splashed with something as they are at the kitchen window. Will give it a try though

what a way to spend a lovely sunny sunday :)

the rug stuff like a sort of plastic mesh? I'd throw it in the sink with some flash.

I washed my sticky mats in the bath, just hosed them off, and they were fine. Got rid of all the dust and improved the stickiness again!

Blind slats - what are they made of? I'd consider using carpet cleaner and vacuuming them, tbh.

Piglet, its a kinda of tacky felt stuff - washed perfectly :)
Leaving the blind slats for another day as made a cake instead!

I actually remember the instructions for the rug felt that we have saying you're supposed to wash it now and then, as washing it refreshes the sticky powers!
