2. Step 1: Set Up to Expose the Entire Material
You cannot clean it while it
is folded up.
The only way to clean an
awning is to set it up
properly.
The awnings are made
waterproof, so it is very
important for the water or
other fluids to be dried off
and wiped clean.
The heat from the sun will
help the water / fluid(s) to
dry up quickly.
3. Step 2: Remove That Grime Before It’s Too Late
Grime is the mixture of dirt,
debris, bird droppings and
other stuff that usually
settles atop awnings.
If the grime sets, then it
could damage the material
and waterproofing feature.
The best approach would
be to clean off any grime
which makes the awning
look dirty.
4. A soft cloth and some water can do
wonders.
Awnings are primarily made from
canvas and this makes it waterproof.
Soft cloth and water are the two
things that would not affect the
waterproofing ability of the material in
any manner.
Make sure to use a light hand as
aggressive strokes could also damage
the materials.
Step 3: Water + Soft Cloth = Easy Cleaning Tools
5. There are many standard issue
awning cleaners out there in the
market.
You may also try the Camco RV
Awning cleaner from Australia
Wide Annexes.
This will give you the much
required boost to the cleaning
process without compromising the
effectiveness of the waterproofing
of the awning’s material.
Step 4: Use Standard Issue Awning Cleaners
6. If the awning is excessively dirty
with a lot of grime accumulation,
use a cap of bleach mixed in warm
water for getting off all dirt.
The cleaning fluids can be a life
saver but it strips some
waterproofing from the materials
so before monsoon sets in, you
would have to reapply water
resistive coating to it.
