FABRICS
• High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) woven or knitted shade cloth used in
sunshades and other shade structures

PROHIBITIONS/WARNINGS
• Do not use bleach or other chlorine-containing cleaning agents
• Keep away from petrol and other organic solvents
• Keep away from direct and intense heat sources

GENERAL CARE INSTRUCTION
A regular clean using soapy water and a soft brush followed by rinsing with
clean water is recommended. Do not allow bird droppings and similar organic
matter to remain for any length of time.
It is recommended that sunshades are taken down ahead of gale-force
winds. Avoid collection of snow or hail as this may damage the sunshade or
supporting structure.

SPOT CLEANING/SPECIAL TREATMENTS
For persistent dirt or stains apply sugar soap and water to the affected area
and work in with a soft-bristled brush; leave for 15-20 minutes then rinse away;
repeat if necessary.
A regular spray with a commercial cleaning agent (refer manufacturer’s
instructions and prohibitions/warnings stated above) while the fabric is under
tension will help to prevent build-up of lichen, moss and mould.
