    FABRIC CARE RECacril Marine Grade Acrylic Fabric Infinity Process is a highly technological finish, providing RECacril with a long lasting protection against mold and mildew, excellent water and oil repellency and protects you from both sun and water. However, the accumulation of dust, pollution particles, foreign organic materials and general dirt can damage this protection, shortening the life of the RECacril, so they should be removed.
  • Page 6 Casual Care & Cleaning • Brush off dust and dirt with a soft brush. NEVER brush with stiff brushes since this can damage the fabric finish. • Spray the umbrella with clean water. If a hose is used, avoid high pressure.
