Do you know how to clean your outdoor pillows & cushions? Here is some information on care of your outdoor fabric. Some tips may surprise you....
The majority of the fabric I use is Richloom Solarium Outdoor Fabric. Below are suggested care instructions and facts regarding outdoor fabric:
• 100% Spun Polyester
• Vacuum, Spot Clean With Water Free Agent, Professional Cleaning Recommended
• Made in USA
This outdoor fabric from Richloom is solution dyed (solution-dye process is when the color is manufactured into and throughout the fiber, the color is part of the finished fabric). This gives the fiber consistent and durable color that stands up in tough environments, such as sustained direct sunlight. This fabric will withstand 5,000 hours sunlight and is perfect for porches, patios, deck side, pool side and boat side. This fabric is durable, water repellent and mildew resistant; it is designed to withstand harsh environmental effects.
~Spun Polyester is a 100% polyester material that has a soft fabric feel. It is an easy care fabric but should be cleaned regularly to keep it looking fresh and new.
~Printed Spun Poly is the same fabric that has its pattern printed on the surface. As with all printing inks (even light-fast inks), fading will occur over time. This can be prevented with the regular application of Solar Shield® fabric protectant.
~Clean with 50% combination of water and mild soap or detergent. For stains, a mild solution of bleach may be used.
Do not use bleach on printed fabrics!
