How to Clean Your Outdoor Upholstery
Let’s face it. Nobody really likes cleaning or maintenance. But, it is an essential part of everyday life and it is necessary to make sure your home is presentable and all your stuff is in perfect working order. But, as mentioned earlier, sometimes cleaning certain things can prove to be a bit difficult. For example, cleaning your outdoor furniture and their upholstery could prove to be challenging. But have no worries, because Foam World has come up with this blog post to make your life and upholstery cleaning easier.
Preventive Maintenance
You know what they say. “Prevention is better than remedy.” So, it’s better to make sure your upholstery doesn’t get too dirty in the first place. If you spend a little time every day or every couple of days to do a bit of simple cleaning like wiping or brushing your upholstery, then you won’t need to put in massive amounts of time and effort into it later.
Suction
Whenever you vacuum your house, vacuum your outdoor upholstery as well. This will get rid of the larger pieces of debris along with the finer pieces of dust.
Stain Removal
If there are stains on your outdoor upholstery, then you could try using detergent water. Apply the detergent water and let the stained area soak. Use a vacuum cleaner to vacuum the area after a while. This should help remove any stains.
Extreme Measures
If the steps mentioned above don’t work, it’s time to take some extreme steps. Try using bleach in sparring doses. Try not to do this too often though, because bleach wears down the upholstery fabric over time. Using bleach too often might also cause health related issues.
Sometimes, pieces of furniture may need to be replaced even after regular cleaning sessions and good maintenance. If that happens to you, it’s probably time to get a new set of furniture.
