Thermal blinds

Post by skippy1089 »

Posting here as can't see a section for daft questions.

On the JK thermal blinds, what are the small elastic loops for? Have asked a few people but no one seems to know.

Grow some nails :rofl. I have a these blinds and the only way I can get them off is to get my fingertips under the edge of the suckers to break the seal on each one and then pull off. on the plus side at least they don't fall off halfway through the night :ok

Spit to stick 'em, fingernail to peel 'em off.

BIG LOVE for the window blankets, they worked great last winter and are working equally well this summer keeping the Westy cool in the sunshine.

Oh yea, fingernails and spit!
