THREE MAIN TYPES OF RETRACTABLE AWNING FABRICS AND HOW TO CLEAN THEM.
1. ACRYLIC FABRICS (USED FOR STRAIGHT DROP AWNINGS, SHADERUNNERS, PATIO AWNINGS, DROP ARM AWNINGS & FOLDING ARM AWNINGS)
- Keep the fabric clean by hosing regularly to remove dust, bird droppings and other solid particles
- Clean throughout with non-abrasive mild detergents
- Rinse immediately with clean water and dry thoroughly
2. MESH FABRICS (USED FOR STRAIGHT DROPS, SHADERUNNERS, PATIO AWNINGS, DROP ARM AWNINGS)
- Keep the fabric clean by brushing regularly both on the top and underside with a soft bristled brush and by hosing occasionally with clear, cold water
3. PVC FABRICS (USED FOR RETRACTABLE ROOFS, SHORE FIXED ROOFS, SHADERUNNERS , SHADE SAILS)
- Release the surface of the fabric from coarse dirt and foliage (see above instructions)
- Rinse with clear water
- Using a diluted mild detergent (such as washing-up liquid), gently clean the pvc fabric. You may use a micro-fibre or soft mop to apply the solution
- Leave for approximately 10 minutes then rinse with clear water
- Allow to dry before retracting the awning (if applicable) – do not use hot air dryers as this may lead to changes in the colour of the fabric
- For stubborn stains, repeat the process
