Bramblecrest outdoor cushions are known for their durability and quality. Unlike other garden cushions that become easily tarnished when exposed to the elements, Bramblecrest outdoor cushions are made using season-proof fabric that is shower-resistant. Whilst they are naturally hardwearing, it’s still important to maintain proper care of your Bramblecrest cushions in order to protect their quality and enhance their longevity. Luckily, these outdoor cushions have been designed so that they are easy-to clean. A wipeable, shower-proof coating and removable cover means that Bramblecrest outdoor cushions can be cleaned in just 4 easy steps:
Wipe Away Surface Water & Blot Spillages Immediately
When enjoying our garden furniture, spillages from food and drink are bound to happen from time to time. You don’t need to worry about spillages damaging your cushions so long as you wipe them away quickly. Make sure to mop up any spillages immediately using an absorbent sponge or cloth, rather than letting the spillage sit there. The same goes for water. The shower-proof coating on Bramblecrest outdoor cushions gives them a level of waterproof protection, however it’s still important to be diligent in wiping away any residue moisture frequently.
Spray With Soapy Water & Agitate With A Soft Brush
The next step in how to clean Bramblecrest outdoor cushions is spraying the surface with soapy water. Avoid using harsh chemical detergents and instead stick to a simple mix of soap and water. Once you’ve sprayed the surface, take a soft brush, such as a washing up brush, and use it to agitate the surface. This is an important part of removing any surface dirt, as well as bringing out any light stains that might be sat on the surface.
Rinse With Water
Once you’ve scrubbed the surface of the cushion with soapy water, it’s important that you rinse it thoroughly with clean water. Make sure that you’ve washed away any soapy residue, before leaving to air dry. Do not try to speed up the drying process by placing covers on a radiator or using a hair dryer. If there are more stubborn stains that have not come out then you may need to hand wash them using the method explained below.
Hand Wash Covers At 30 Degrees
The removable covers that come with Bramblecrest garden furniture cushions and scatter cushions are part of what makes them so easy to clean. If there are more stubborn stains, you can remove the covers and hand wash them at 30 degrees using a household stain remover. Do not machine wash them as this can cause damage to the water-resistant lining. Once you’ve finished washing the covers, make sure to leave them to air dry.
Cleaning is just one crucial aspect of caring for your Bramblecrest outdoor cushions. In order to ensure further protection, we would recommend storing them in an outdoor storage box or indoors during the winter and during prolonged periods of non-use. This will keep them protected from the harsher elements, in order to ensure that they maintain their high quality for a prolonged period of time.
