Using this backdrop stand cover is super easy. First, make sure your 7ft half - moon backdrop stand is set up properly. Then, simply pull the cover over the stand. It's double - sided, so you don't have to worry about which side to show. For cleaning, you can hand - wash it in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach as it may damage the spandex material. When not in use, store it in a cool, dry place. Don't leave it in direct sunlight for long periods as it might fade the matte white color.
