Are Cushions Waterproof?
Cushions made from water-resistant material can endure light rainfall outdoors. However, during a heavy rain pour it is best to protect your seat cushions from a storm. Cover any patio furniture with waterproof patio covers or bring the cushions indoors, especially during a wind storm.
Seat Cushion Protection Steps – Acapulco Chairs
Protect seat cushions from the outdoor elements with this two-step process.
First, clean the cushions and chairs using a sponge and a mild soapy warm water mixture.
Second, once the seat cushions have thoroughly dried, spray them with a good, quality fabric protector. Remember to test the fabric protector on an area that is less noticeable before spraying the entire cushion. This will ensure the material does not bleed or discolor the cushion or chair itself.
