Accidentally spilled epoxy on your outdoor cushions? Don't worry—there are simple ways to remove it without ruining the fabric. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you clean epoxy drips effectively.
1. Scrape Off Excess Epoxy: Use a plastic scraper or a dull knife to gently remove as much dried epoxy as possible. Avoid sharp tools to prevent fabric damage.
2. Apply Rubbing Alcohol or Acetone: Dampen a cloth with rubbing alcohol or acetone (test on a small area first) and gently rub the epoxy stain. This helps break down the adhesive properties.
3. Use Warm Soapy Water: After loosening the epoxy, wash the area with warm soapy water and a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and let it air dry.
4. Repeat if Necessary: Stubborn epoxy may require multiple applications. Be patient and avoid scrubbing too hard to protect the cushion material.
5. Prevent Future Spills: Work with epoxy in a well-ventilated area and cover cushions when doing DIY projects.
By following these steps, you can restore your outdoor cushions to their original condition. Always test cleaning solutions on a hidden spot first to ensure colorfastness.
