Cleaning the ROLdoûr Screen

Cleaning the ROLdoûr screen is straightforward and made even more convenient with its removable cartridge design. The ROLdoûr screen is crafted from 100% polyester, featuring a blush-textured finish on the front for a luxurious living space and a waterproof PVC coating on the back for added durability.

Fabric Protection Recommendation

We recommend treating the textured fabric side of your ROLdoûr screen with a fabric protection spray before use. This should be applied upon purchase and reapplied seasonally or as needed. This treatment helps safeguard the fabric against scuffs, marks, and stains caused by passing traffic in your living area, making it easier to wipe clean.

For the textured side, we suggest using waterproof fabric protection products such as Scotchgard’s dry fabric waterproof shield.

Protecting the Waterproof Side

The waterproof PVC-coated side can also benefit from additional protection. Applying a waterproof repellent spray can enhance water runoff. Depending on the position of your shower head, you may choose to add an extra shield to protect your screen. This is particularly useful if the shower head is positioned directly in line with the screen, as opposed to a side-mounted shower head that produces general overspray.

Cleaning Instructions

Textured Polyester Side

Dust Removal: Begin by removing any surface dust with a dry cloth.
Spot Cleaning: Use a damp cloth (not soaking wet) or baby wipes to gently dab or scrub at marks or stains. For tougher stains, apply light pressure and rinse your cloth regularly to avoid spreading dirt.
Flat Surface Cleaning: If necessary, remove the cartridge from the frame and clean the screen on a flat, clean surface. Alternatively, clean the screen while it is in place, ensuring you do not apply excessive force to avoid stretching the fabric or damaging the waterproof resin. Use a clean, flat object or board behind the screen for support while cleaning.
Wiping Motion: Wipe the fabric in a single direction, from top to bottom, with the screen fully extended.
Air Drying: Allow the screen to air dry naturally while fully extended.
Fabric Retreatment: Once the screen is fully dry, reapply a fabric protection spray to maintain resistance against scuffs and marks.

Important Notes:

Do not use bleach or harsh chemicals, as these can discolor or damage the fabric.
Use warm water rather than hot water to prevent damage to the material.

Waterproof PVC-Coated Side

Soapy Cleaning: Use a soft cloth or sponge with a mild soapy solution to clean the waterproof side. Gently scrub the surface and rinse away soap with fresh, clean water.
Flat Surface Cleaning: As with the textured side, you can remove the cartridge from the frame and clean it on a flat surface. If cleaning in situ, use a clean, flat object or board behind the screen for support.
Air Drying: Allow the screen to air dry completely before applying any additional treatments.
Waterproof Retreatment: Once the screen is fully dry, reapply a waterproof shield spray if necessary to maintain water resistance.

Important Notes:

Avoid using bleach or abrasive chemicals, as they can damage the waterproof layer or discolor the material.
Stick to warm water and mild cleaning products to preserve the screen’s integrity.

Additional Care Tips

Drying After Use: After the screen has been in contact with water, always leave it fully extended and closed to allow it to dry thoroughly before rolling it away. This prevents the buildup of moisture, which could lead to mould growth.
Long-Term Storage: If the shower screen will not be in use for an extended period, we recommend leaving it fully extended and closed to ensure it remains dry and mould-free.

Long-Term Care

With proper care, cleaning, and regular treatments, your ROLdoûr screen will last for many years. Should you wish to refresh your screen, replacement cartridges with new fabric are available for purchase. As we continue to grow, we will expand our range of colors, allowing you to update your screen with a fresh look by completely changing its color.

By following these guidelines, you can ensure your ROLdoûr screen remains functional, clean, and protected for years to come.
