Outdoor Cushion Care: Make Them Last

By Taryn Moore ·

Fabric Types

Solution-dyed acrylic (Sunbrella) resists fading best. Polyester fades faster.

Weekly Maintenance

Brush off debris and spot clean spills immediately with mild soap.

Deep Cleaning

Machine wash removable covers on gentle. Scrub non-removable covers with soapy water.

Mold Prevention

Never store while damp. Air dry completely. Use mold inhibitor in humid climates.

Off-Season Storage

Store in dry, ventilated area. Use breathable bags, not plastic.

UV Protection

Apply UV-protectant spray annually. Position under shade structures.
