How can I clean my vinyl strap furniture?
Outdoor furniture should be cleaned periodically with a multipurpose cleaner; we recommend Casual Clean Multipurpose Cleaner. Routine cleaning will help enhance the appearance and extend the life of your patio furniture. This cleaner attacks the sun-baked dirt and mildew stains. Dilute with water for less difficult cleaning jobs.
Hose down. Dilute 1 part of Casual Clean Multipurpose Cleaner to 5 parts of water. Scrub using a nylon brush, sponge or a cloth. Rinse thoroughly and leave in the sun to dry. To prolong the life and beauty of your fabric, we recommend that a towel be placed over the sling when using any tanning or insect repellent products. Should any of these products come in contact with the fabric, wash and rinse immediately as noted above.
Do not use bleach, solvent-based cleaners, or water temperature of 100 degrees. Do not put sling in the swimming pool.
