Keep your bean bag furniture looking fabulous
Armadillo Sun's garden furniture is made from a special solution-dyed acrylic that's specifically developed for outdoor use in all-weathers. This fabric is water repellent, stain resistant and won't fade.
A quick, but regular, clean and a little light maintenance will keep your outdoor furniture looking new and inviting.
Outdoor Furniture Care Guide
One of the best ways to keep cleaning and maintenance to a minimum is to brush off dirt before it becomes embedded in the fabric and wipe up spills soon after they happen.
- Wipe up spills as soon as they occur
- Allow to air dry after heavy or prolonged rain
- Keep furniture clean and free from debris like falling leaves
- Rinse off salt water
Cleaning Tips
Please don't put our products in the washing machine or take them to the dry cleaners.
In most cases, all you will need to spruce them up is a brush, a damp cloth and/or a hose.
General Cleaning:
- Brush off any loose dirt
- Prepare a cleaning solution of 60ml mild soap per 4 litres of lukewarm water (under 38°C)
- Use a sponge or a soft bristle brush to clean
- Allow cleaning solution to soak into fabric
- Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue
- Allow fabric to air dry
Spot Cleaning:
- Prepare a cleaning solution as above
- Work the solution into the stain by lightly scrubbing the area with a sponge or very soft bristle brush
- Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue
- Blot excess moisture with a clean, soft towel or sponge
- Repeat these steps until stain is removed
Salt Water:
Salt water and sea-spray will not damage our bean bags or garden furniture. However, prolonged immersion in salt water will damage the metallic zips. Therefore we recommend rinsing off salt water as soon as possible.
Heavy Cleaning for Stubborn Stains and Mildew:
Our specially designed fabric is mould-resistant. However, mildew may grow on dirt if it is not removed from the fabric. To clean mildew, or other stubborn stains:
- Prepare a solution of 225 ml of bleach and 60ml of mild soap per 4 litres of clean water
- Spray on entire area and allow to soak into the fabric
- Scrub vigorously with a soft bristle brush, sponge, or clean towel
- Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue
- Allow fabric to air dry
If the stain or mildew is severe, bleach quantities can be increased.
