Check if the canopy can be disassembled for washing.
For models with a detachable canopy, you can remove it from the structure and wash it by hand.
For models not recommended for disassembly, please open the umbrella and wash it using a high-pressure water pump.

Step 2: Assess the Stain Severity
Determine whether the stains are mild or heavy. For mild stains, follow the steps mentioned in the previous instructions using a mild detergent. For heavy stains, use strong cleaning solutions and control the contact time accordingly
For mild stains, follow the steps mentioned above:
Gently brush off any loose dust.
Rinse with water.
Prepare a mild neutral detergent ( such as dish soap ).
Apply the detergent to the surface of the canopy using a soft brush.
Allow the detergent to sit on the fabric for 15-20 minutes, allowing it to penetrate.
Thoroughly rinse, ensuring all detergent is completely washed away.
Open the umbrella and allow it to air dry naturally.
For heavy stains and mold spots:
Mix 1 cup of bleach, 1/4 cup of mild soap, and 1 gallon of water to create a cleaning solution.
Use a soft brush to treat the affected areas, making sure the fabric and the mixture are in contact for a maximum of 15 minutes.
Thoroughly rinse, ensuring all cleaning solution is completely washed away.
Open the umbrella and allow it to air dry naturally.
If necessary, repeat the above steps.
————————— Important Notes ——————————
Do not machine wash or vigorously rub the umbrella, as it may damage the waterproof coating.
Keep the water temperature below 40°C (104°F).
Use neutral detergents whenever possible. If bleach is used, choose a non-chlorine bleach (oxygen bleach) for localized stains.
When using bleach solution and during the rinsing process, protect your eyes and face to avoid irritation to the respiratory system.
Protect nearby carpets or other fabrics to avoid discoloration from contact with the bleach.
When the umbrella is not in use for an extended period, it is advisable to cover it with a dust cover. With repeated cleaning, the coating may gradually wear off, reducing the waterproof effect.
