Care and Cleaning of of Monet Garden Awning, Canopy and Sunshade Fabric

Monet Garden Awning, Canopy and Sunshade Fabric is made of 100% solution-dyed fiber, which gives it color brightness that is unsurpassed. Being a woven fabric, it breathes and is translucent. It is guaranteed for a period of five (5) years against loss of color or strength from normal exposure conditions including sunlight, mildew, rot and atmospheric chemicals. Monet Garden Awning, Canopy and Sunshade Fabric has a fluorocarbon finish which provides excellent water repellency.

1. Monet Garden Awning, Canopy and Sunshade Fabric fabric should be cleaned regularly before substances such as dirt, roof particles and other debris are allowed to accumulate and become embedded in the fabric. The fabric can be cleaned without being removed from the frame. Simply brush off any loose dirt, roof particles, or other fourign materials and hose down and clean with a mild soap in lukewarm water (no more than 100 degrees F.) Rinse thoroughly to remove soap. DO NOT USE DETERGENTS!

2. For stubborn stains, soak the fabric for approximately 20 minutes in a solution of not more than 1/2 cup (one half of a cup) or 4 oz. (four ounces) of bleach and 1/4 cup )one quarter of a cup) of mild soap per gallon of water at approximately 100 degrees F. Rinse thoroughly in cold water to remove all of the soap. Note: excessive soaking in bleach can deteriorate sewing threads. This method of cleaning may remove part of the water repellency. If water repellency is a factor, the fabric should receive an application of an air-curing water repellant treatment.
