Outdoor cushions can accumulate stubborn Bondo residue over time, leaving unsightly marks. Fortunately, removing it doesn’t require harsh chemicals—just a few household items and patience. Here’s how to restore your cushions:
1. Scrape Off Excess: Use a plastic scraper or old credit card to gently remove dried Bondo without damaging the fabric.
2. Apply Rubbing Alcohol: Dampen a cloth with rubbing alcohol and blot the residue. Let it sit for 5 minutes to loosen the bond.
3. Scrub Gently: Use a soft-bristle brush or sponge to work the residue away. Repeat if needed.
4. Wash with Soapy Water: Mix mild dish soap with warm water and wipe the area to remove any remaining traces.
5. Rinse and Dry: Rinse with clean water and air-dry completely before reuse.
For tougher stains, a paste of baking soda and water can help. Always test cleaners on a hidden area first. With these steps, your cushions will look fresh again!
