Cleaning and Caring for your awning
We are frequently asked “How do I keep my awning clean?” We have found the best way to keep your awning looking great is routine cleaning. It is recommend that awnings are hosed off monthly and scrubbed lightly with mild soap to prevent dirt from becoming embedded in the fabric. In most area awnings will need a vigorous cleaning every 2 to 3 years.
For a more vigorous cleaning stains Sunbrella recommends a cleaning solution that is 1 cup bleach, 1/4 cup mild soap, and 1 gallon of water, use a soft brush to clean awning and allow up to 15 minutes for mixture to soak into material. Rinse throughly until all soap suds are gone. Air Dry.
