How to clean outdoor cushion? If your outdoor furniture cushions are dirty, you don’t have to replace them. With a few simple cleaning tools and products, they’ll look like new again.
Remove any visible dirt and debris
To begin with, use a vacuum cleaner or damp cloth to remove any visible dirt and debris. If you have outdoor cushions that are made of fabric, like Warwick fabrics cushions, you may want to consider using a garden hose with a soft spray setting on them instead of using soap as this will help keep them from getting stained by dirt or mud while they are being cleaned.
Mix laundry detergent with equal parts water in a large bucket
The first step to cleaning outdoor cushions is to get your supplies together. A large bucket will help you mix the detergent and water; a sturdy brush will help scrub away any stains. Pour in the laundry detergent and equal parts water, then mix them together with your brush until it’s dissolved.

Brush the mixture onto each cushion with a stiff brush. Use a stiff brush to apply the mixture to each cushion, preferably one that is appropriate for your type of outdoor furniture. If you have cushions with thick fabric or leather, an old paintbrush would work well—just make sure the bristles are soft and not hard. If you have plastic or vinyl cushions, try using a small scrub brush instead.
Brush both sides of each piece: front and back so there will be no missed areas where mould could grow hidden from view later on down the line.

Let the cushions rest before rinsing. Now that you’ve let the detergent sit for 30 minutes, it’s time to rinse off your outdoor cushions. Once all of these steps have been completed successfully, allow your cushions to dry completely before storing them away again—which should take no more than 48 hours depending on local weather conditions!
