cleaning cockpit cushions

[kingsailor]

Has anyone found a good product to clean cockpit cushions made out of Sunshure woven fabric?? Thanks

Best to call the manufacturer.

I have taken them ashore and cleaned them with a power washer. They cleaned up very well. Only one caution: do not hold the power washer tip still in one place trying to get a stubborn spot out. The power spray will make a hole in the fabric. (I found this out on the back side, luckily)

Is Sunshure like Sunbrella or the other outdoor polyester fabrics? If the cover can be removed from the cushion... just toss it in the washer - cold water, mild detergent. Remove and hang up to dry.

I just did this with some covers from West Marine cockpit cushions.

[edit] - some care info for Sunsure

I have one of the home carpet cleaners (hot water steamer). Used the hand attachment on all the boat cushions. Cleaned them up pretty well without soaking the insides.
