Over time, even the most weather-resistant, durable, and sturdy awning will require maintenance. To ensure longevity of your fabric awning, it is advised to maintain a regular regiment of simply brushing off debris and dirt from fabric. To clean the awning, just rinse it with water. In a separate bucket, mix natural soap and water. With a clean brush, dunk into the bucket and clean the awning with sweeping motions; rinse thoroughly to remove all the soap. Always remember to allow the fabric to fully dry before retracting the awning, and enjoy your shade!
