Title: Cleaning lamp shades??
Post by: Morph on January 09, 2006, 07:52:07 pm

I'm new to the cleaning side of things, can anyone advise me:

I've been asked to clean inside and out, about 60 lampshades.  They're in-situ(can't remove them), glass, oval, vertical hanging with an opening at the bottom about 4" diameter.
Each one about 8" big.  Hanging about 12' up.  So a bit tricky.  I've tried a feather duster on a stick...not very good results.
I just wondered if any of you geniuses have had something similar and found a way to clean them up?
Any help much appreciated.

hi there,

this is a case of getting up and personal with the shades,

several questions,

can you get triple multi ladder in??

or a tower??

where in the country is it??

obviously there will be a cost to this, but from our point of view, quote, sell and deliver the service
