If soft seats and cushions of your BRIG boat are made from
Sunbrella
® fabric, please read this instruction for the proper
care of fabric.
Sunbrella
® fabrics are made from solution-dyed acrylic fibres
specifically designed for outdoor use. These air-permeable fab-
rics are chemically treated during manufacture. The treated fabric
is more resistant to water, soiling (watermarks, dirt resulting from
pollution or oily substances) and to the formation of mildew.
Over time, the effectiveness of the treatment diminishes. We there-
fore recommend that you clean and re-treat your fabric regularly in
order to keep it in excellent condition and to make it last much longer.
Cleaning
1) When dry, brush the fabric (using a clothes brush or similar) in
order to remove as much dirt as possible.
2) Spray the fabric with a jet of water, to moisten it.
3) Prepare a cleaning solution as follows:
• For a standard clean: add 100ml (or more) of mild soap to 4
litres of hot water (maximum 40°C)
• For the best possible result: use
303 Fabric Cleaner
4) Brush the fabric using a soft brush (clothes brush or similar)
and leave the solution to act for a few seconds.
•
To remove marks:
use the cleaner on its own, or just slightly
diluted with water. Spray onto the mark until the fabric is wet.
Work the product in using a soft brush. Wipe away the mark and
any excess cleaner with a wet cloth.
5) Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
6) Leave the fabric to dry in the open air.
Note:
to avoid any deterioration of the fabric, we recommend
you never expose it to sources of heat (e.g. hair dryers) or
never use the following when cleaning: detergent, hot water
(above 40°C), high-pressure cleaners.
Care & Maintenance of your Sunbrella® Fabric
Protection
303 High Tech Fabric Guard
restores your fabric’s original
water-resistant and dirt-repellent properties. It stops leaks, pre-
vents the formation of marks and mildew and protects the fabric
against the harmful effects of UV rays.
Re-treating with
303
High Tech Fabric Guard
is easy, quick
and produces long-lasting results.
• Use only on completely dry, new or recently cleaned fabric.
• Spray
303 High Tech Fabric Guard
until the fabric is moist.
Do not overspray.
• Leave the fabric to dry completely before using it or putting it
away.
If you have the time, give your fabric a second treatment. Leave it
to dry completely in the open air between treatments.
Coverage: use 500 ml for every 7 to 10 square metres treated.
Note:
the use of silicone-based waterproofing products is
not recommended. They are not compatible and there is there-
fore a risk of marks appearing once exposed to the air. Water-
proofing products designed for use with wood and brickwork
are also not recommended.
Read the instructions and recommendations on the label before
using
303 HighTech Fabric Guard
and
303 Fabric Cleaner.
