Cleaning Patio Umbrellas

by guestpost on December 28, 2009

Despite our best efforts, patio umbrellas can become dirty. Fortunately, they aren’t too hard to clean.  Here are some tips on how to clean patio umbrellas.

• Open the umbrella and see if you can remove the fabric, as this is going to make it easier to clean.
• Make a solution out of mild soap and water in a bucket. Soap used for washing dishes works well.
• Wet the umbrella.
• Wipe hard surfaces, such as the pole, with a rag that’s been put in the solution.
• Dip a brush in the soapy water and use it to clean the parts of the fabric that are dirty.
• Rinse the umbrella and let it dry before storing it.
