how to clean stuff.com said to fill a ;arge bucket, tub or washer with clean water and laundry soap(one cap full), remove shade from frame saturate the shade (i'm not taking it off frame) and with a sponge, gently wash the shade, rinse thoroughly,pat dry with a towel, leave in a sunny area or speed dry with a hair blower roatating evenly so not to get water marks

I had a couple that were dirty, but not water spotted. I set it in the sink, wet with cold water, put Dawn liquid on a soft brush and just vigorously scrubbed it. Mine were beige. Then I rinsed it thoroughly, sat it on a over sized bath towel and got it 95% dry by just pressing the towel on the shade. Both turned out GREAT!
