Re: MCD shades Day/Night Reply #26 – April 01, 2020, 11:59:18 am Started installing the shades last night. All the trim needs removed to get to these things..but they look really nice. I will post some pics of before and after when I am finishedAgain MCD has the most colors and types of material.. Worth the extra for the decorative side. Quote Selected 3 Likes

Re: MCD shades Day/Night Reply #28 – April 01, 2020, 09:16:03 pm That probably means that the shade is not mounted squarely to the roller. I would talk to MCD. They are very customer oriented. Quote Selected 1 Likes
Re: MCD shades Day/Night Reply #29 – April 01, 2020, 09:53:55 pm David my MCD shades roll up square. The issue I'm having with them lately is either they don't roll all the way up or they're sluggish about it. I know there's an adjustment for it and I did it on one shade with some success just haven't gone in and done the rest of them yet. Yeah you have to remove the valances obviously they'll install them. If you need it it's a good time to recover them which I did including new foam. There's a billion staples holding that stuff in there so it's kind of a big job, takes a long time. But they look really good and recovered and I'm happy I did it. Couldn't believe how much Dust and dirt was in the old stuff. Also took the time to take the old halogen bulbs out and replace them with LED strips. I used the color changing RBGW with a Bluetooth controller. I can change the color the intensity and the white light color balance on my phone.been waiting over a month for new wallpaper to arrive. when it arrives I'm going to have to take the valances down again to do the wallpaper. The wallpaper I got is pretty high end. Not the exact same company that for travel use but the same type of wallpaper. It's a vinyl backed. Quote Selected 1 Likes
Re: MCD shades Day/Night Reply #30 – April 01, 2020, 10:02:12 pm David if you just want to get it working, roll it down all the way and shove a small piece of cardboard or any other thin object up against the roller on the low side and trial and error will find the right thickness to make it go up straight.
