Accidentally getting concrete splatter on your outdoor cushions can be frustrating, but don’t worry—it’s possible to remove it with the right approach. Here’s a step-by-step guide to restoring your cushions to their original condition.

1. Let the Concrete Dry Completely

Avoid scrubbing wet concrete, as it can spread and worsen the stain. Wait until it hardens before attempting removal.

2. Scrape Off Excess Concrete

Use a plastic scraper or a stiff brush to gently loosen and remove dried concrete chunks. Be careful not to damage the fabric.

3. Apply a Vinegar Solution

Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Lightly spray the stained area and let it sit for 10-15 minutes to soften the residue.

4. Scrub with a Soft Brush

Gently scrub the area with a soft-bristle brush or an old toothbrush. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent mixed with warm water.

5. Rinse Thoroughly

Rinse the cushion with clean water and let it air dry. Repeat the process if necessary.

For stubborn stains, consider using a commercial concrete dissolver, but test it on a small, hidden area first to ensure it won’t damage the fabric.

Prevention Tip: Cover outdoor cushions when working with concrete to avoid future splatters. With these steps, your cushions will look as good as new!
