It’s that time of the year again when you might need to tidy up your tops and we’ve got some great tips to help ensure you get the best results. Start by watching the video above and keep in mind these general rules:

• Use a mild detergent such as Woolite and Dawn dishwashing liquid, cold to lukewarm water and a soft-bristle brush
• Never apply heat to Sunbrella fabrics – simply air dry
• Chlorine Bleach can be used for heavier stains but you will need to retreat for stain protection/water repellency
• Tops can be machine washed if they fit but don’t dry them in a dryer, only air dry

Their is a good deal more info in the Sunbrella PDF found here including what dilutions of cleaners to use, how to prepare your top for cleaning etc.
