Cleaning outdoor cushions is easier than most people think. For one thing, outdoor cushions typically can get wet without hindering color, shape and texture of the fabric or fill. That means you can basically wash outdoor cushions with any mild fabric cleaner or laundry detergent, soft brush and cloth and rinse with a garden hose. Shake them out well to remove excess water. Check out our blog post How to Clean Your Furniture Cushion for general instructions on how to clean cushions. 

If you are lucky enough to have a carpet steam cleaner with a hose and tool attachment for working spots and small areas , use that with carpet cleaning solution in the steam clearer as directed on the cleaning solution container and use the tool to spray on the solution and lift off the dirt. After a thorough cleaning  Its usually best to fill the container with fresh water, spray and rinse the fabric to remove excess cleaning solution.

For some fabrics such as Sunbrella® fabric. you can use a small amount of bleach in the cleaning solution or applied separately for terribly soiled fabric. See Sunbrella’s care and cleaning page.
