The common feature that all Nettuno Marine Equipment® have, is the essential choice of using the best fabrics and materials.

Today we would like to tell you about the care and maintenance of the Sunbrella® fabrics.

To prevent dirt from taking hold of the fabric and therefore avoiding a deeper cleaning with specific detergents, once a month, it is recommended a washing with water and common neutral soap.

All you have to do is brush the dirt with a soft brush, spray the fabric with water and detergent, let it act in order to penetrate the fabric, well rinse and leave to air to dry.

The latter operation is essential to avoid mould that would damage your fabric.

In this case or if there is persistent dirt, it is possible to use a solution of bleach and mild soap in the measure of 1 glass of bleach and a quarter of soap every four litres of water. It is very important that the solution remains at least 15minutes on the stain so that it could be absorbed. Rinse then thoroughly and leave to dry well outdoors.

For a deep and professional cleaning instead, we recommend the use of Tex’Aktive Clean , detergent for outdoor fabrics with high stain removal power which must be followed by a treatment with Tex’Aktive Guard , waterproofing for fabrics with a water-repellent effect.

In fact, all Sunbrella Plus® fabrics have a stain-proofing waterproof treatment that should be renewed over the years or after a thorough cleaning.

And you, ready to clean?
