Outdoor sofa cushions are prone to stains from dirt, spills, and weather exposure. Fortunately, removing these stains doesn’t require professional help—just a few simple steps.
1. Identify the Stain Type
Different stains (mud, grease, food, or mildew) require different treatments. Blot fresh spills immediately to prevent setting.
2. Prepare a Cleaning Solution
- For general stains: Mix mild dish soap with warm water.
- For mildew: Use equal parts water and white vinegar.
- For tough stains: A paste of baking soda and water works well.
3. Scrub Gently
Use a soft brush or sponge to apply the solution. Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent fabric damage.
4. Rinse and Dry
Rinse with clean water and let the cushions air-dry completely in sunlight to prevent mold.
For stubborn stains, repeat the process or use a specialized outdoor fabric cleaner. Regular maintenance keeps cushions looking new!
