sunbrella fabric care

Good Sunbrella fabric care is simpler than most people expect, and a few easy habits can keep your patio cushions, umbrellas, and boat seats looking fresh season after season. Because this outdoor fabric is solution-dyed acrylic, its color runs through the fibers rather than sitting on the surface, so a little routine attention goes a long way.

Everyday Care Basics

Brush off loose dirt and debris before it settles into the weave. Rinse cushions and covers with a hose every few weeks, especially after pollen season or heavy use.

Cleaning Light Soil

• Mix a mild soap with lukewarm water.
• Scrub gently with a soft-bristle brush.
• Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
• Let the fabric air dry completely.

Handling Tough Stains

For Sunbrella stain removal, blot spills quickly instead of rubbing them in. For stubborn spots or mildew growing on surface dirt, check the manufacturer's care guidance before using stronger cleaners.

Protect Your Investment

Store cushions in a dry, ventilated spot during the off-season, and avoid wrapping damp fabric in plastic. Ready to refresh your outdoor space? Browse our Sunbrella fabrics below to find the right color and pattern for your next project.
