A Note About Silhouette Fabrics
As with all textiles, Silhouette fabrics are subject to some variations. Slight wrinkling, puckering,
or bowing is inherent to this textile product and should be considered normal, acceptable quality.
These characteristics are not usually visible from the front or rear but may be visible from a
side angle.
Precautions should be taken to reduce exposure to harsh environmental elements, such as
salt air. Continuous exposure through open windows and doors will accelerate the fabric
deterioration.
