RECacril® is highly resistant to the growth of fungus, mold, and mildew,
however these can grow on embedded dirt. To clean these stains, follow
these more intensive cleaning procedures.
• Brush off dust and dirt with a soft brush. NEVER brush with stiff
brushes as this can damage the fabric finish.
• Prepare a solution with 10% household bleach, 20% solvent-free neutral
detergent (Free & Clear detergents) and 70% water.
• Apply the solution to the fabric, allowing to remain between 15 and 20
minutes maximum.
• Rinse with clean water several times. Any singular bleach residues
remaining on the canvas, combined with the sun, could damage the
fabric and stitching.
• Let air dry and do not close the umbrella until the canvas is completely
dry.
• Repeat the process if necessary.
• Brush off dust and dirt with a soft brush. NEVER brush with stiff
brushes since this can damage the fabric finish.
• Spray the umbrella with clean water. If a hose is used, avoid high
pressure.
• Prepare a solution of solvent-free soap in warm water (no more than
100°F) and apply it to the fabric and stitching.
• Scrub with a soft brush, allowing the solution to penetrate the fabric.
• Rinse with water to remove all traces of soap.
• Let air dry and do not close the umbrella until the canvas is completely
dry.
