Fabrics can be machine washed up to 85 degrees Fahrenheit, without losing their water and stain-resistant properties. Wash using a mild laundry soap like Woolite, Ivory Snow, or similar non-detergent based product.

Thanks to its extraordinary resistance to fading, the fabric product line can also be washed with sodium hypochlorite (household chlorine bleach with a content of less than 5% sodium hypochlorite). This treatment is effective for removing stains such as coffee, wine, beer, juice, etc… It will not affect the fabric’s color fastness or stain and water resistance, if carried out according to the methods described below:

• If hand washing, use 1 cup of bleach in 1 gallon of water as a pre-wash before proceeding with normal washing with a gentile soap (Woolite or Ivory Snow). Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove the soap completely. Allow the fabric to dry in the shade.

• Ratio of bleach to water should always remain 1 cup of bleach to 1 gallon of water.

• Do not use any kind of non-chlorine bleach as it can damage the appearance and characteristics of the fabric.

• Water temperature should not exceed 85 degrees Fahrenheit.

• Avoid sewing threads and trims, unless you have confirmed they are bleach resistant.

• Avoid using detergents as they can, over time, strip away the water and stain-resistant finishes.

• If you notice a decrease in water repellency over time, the fabric can be sprayed with a 303 protectant or similar post-cure spray, which can be found at most marine stores,
