Tips for Using Roadloft Blackout Curtains

The RoadLoft blackout curtains are really practical for finding privacy in the evening and blocking the light in the morning, if you want to sleep in the morning! However, some customers have difficulty with the suction cup system used to secure them to windows. Here are our tips for using them well.

Curtains installation

First of all, you have to make sure that the windows are clean. So wash them just before placing the suction cups.
Moistening the suction cups before putting them down can also help with the hold.
Another element to take into account: place the suction cups directly on the glass. On the rear window there are the defrost lines, they will not stick to it, so be sure to place the suction cups between these lines.

If a suction cup does not hold in place, check that the screw has not pierced it. If so, write to us, it will have to be replaced.

Installing curtains in cold weather

In cold weather, the curtain suction cups won’t adhere as well to the windows. You can start the car to warm up the windows, or rinse the suction cups under lukewarm water, which will remove any dirt that might prevent your curtains from holding in place.
