Unless specified, our fabrics are in stock and ready to ship. We will contact you with unexpected fabric shortages. Large fabric quantities may require longer lead-times. Reach out to Customer Care at info@tonicliving.com if you have any questions.

Fabric yardage may be returned within 30 days of receipt, less a 15% restocking fee applied to the refund total. Fabric that has been cut, washed or altered by the customer cannot be returned.

Keep your product looking its best with these tips:

Vacuum or dust frequently. As dust and dirt cause fabrics to wear more quickly, we recommend routine care such as light dusting or vacuuming at low suction (with a clean soft brush attachment).

Bring outdoor pillows and cushions inside during poor weather conditions. Keep your outdoor products in their best condition by bringing them inside if it is raining or snowing.

Spot cleaning or dry cleaning may be recommended to prevent shrinkage and to keep the colours vivid and crisp.  Depending on the fiber content and product use, care instructions will vary. You can find this information in the individual product listings under Product Details & Care.

If you are using our fabric for upholstery, do not remove the seat covers on a sofa to be dry cleaned separately as the covers may look different from the rest of the piece after cleaning.  Use a professional furniture cleaning service when an overall soiled condition has been reached. 

GENERAL CLEANING FOR INSIDEOUT PERFORMANCE FABRICS
• Because dust and dirt cause fabric to wear faster, we recommend vacuuming regularly with an
upholstery attachment.
• Flip, rotate and fluff removable cushions regularly to ensure even wear and
increase longevity.
An annual professional cleaning will keep your upholstered furniture
looking its best.
• Maintenance requires promptly treating spots and stains and should include routine, on-going care
which reduces soil build-up on a fabric’s surface.
• Do not rub or brush excessively as you may cause fuzzing.

SPOT CLEANING WITH SOAP + WATER FOR EVERYDAY MESSES
The spot cleaning method of stain removal can be used for most light to medium stains.
1) Before spot cleaning, blot up liquids on the surface with a clean, soft towel and brush off any loose dirt.
2) Prepare a cleaning solution of 1/4 tsp mild, enzyme detergent, such as standard dishwashing liquid, per
1 cup of lukewarm water.
3) Apply the cleaning solution using a misting spray bottle.
4) Work the solution into the affected area by lightly scrubbing the area with a sponge or soft bristle
brush. Make sure to work from the outside of the stain inward so as not to spread the stain and rinse
your sponge or brush frequently.
5) Allow the cleaning solution to soak into the fabric.
6) Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residues, as residues will attract dirt. Blot excess moisture with a
clean, soft towel or sponge.
7) Repeat steps 3 - 6 as needed.
8) Allow fabric to air dry.

SPOT CLEANING WITH BLEACH FOR STUBBORN OR EXCESSIVE STAINS
1) Remove any loose debris and blot the stain.
2) Prepare a bleach based cleaning solution. Bleach should be diluted with water on a 1:10 ratio (1 part
bleach, 10 parts water).
3) Apply the bleach based cleaning solution using a misting spray bottle and allow for the solution to soak
into the fabric.
4) Work the solution into the affected area by lightly scrubbing the area with a sponge or soft bristle
brush. Make sure to work from the outside of the stain inward so as not to spread the stain and rinse
your sponge or brush frequently.
5) Blot and thoroughly rinse the fabric with water until the stain is cleaned. *Make sure that all the bleach
is rinsed off of the surface of the fabric*
6) Allow fabric to air dry.

HOW TO TREAT OIL-BASED STAINS
1) Immediately apply an absorbent, such as cornstarch or baking soda, directly on the stain and let it sit
for 10 minutes to help lift the stain.
2) Remove the excess absorbent with a straight edge or ruler to prevent the stain from being pressed into
the fabric. It is imperative to utilize vacuum extraction to remove any excess absorbent.
3) Proceed with the routine spot cleaning process.

Try This First... With a New Spill on Your Sunbrella Fabric:

• Blot (don't rub) liquid spills with a clean, dry cloth.
• For oil-based spills, apply an absorbent such as cornstarch, then remove with a straight edge.
• Spray on a mild cleaning solution of soap and water.
• Rinse the fabric thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
• Air dry.

Try This Next... If Your First Try Doesn't Get the Spill Completely Out:

Though Sunbrella fabrics can be used both indoors and outdoors, your cleaning methods should differ slightly based on the fabrication and manufacturing of the furniture. We recommend using the appropriate cleaning instructions for your application.

Outdoor Upholstery - Cleaning Removable Fabric

Hand Washing

Soak fabric in a solution of 1/4 cup mild soap per gallon of lukewarm water. Use a sponge or very soft bristle brush to lightly agitate the stain. Then rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue and allow fabric to air dry.

Machine Washing

Some removable casings can be washed in the washing machine. However, consult the furniture manufacturer before removing the casing as cushion construction may vary. To wash, first close all zippers. Machine wash in cold water on the delicate cycle with normal amounts of mild laundry detergent. For severe mold or mildew, add 1 cup of bleach. Allow fabric to air dry.

Cleaning Non-Removable Fabric

Prepare a solution of 1/4 cup mild soap per gallon of lukewarm water. Use a soft bristle brush to clean, allowing the cleaning solution to soak into the fabric. Rinse thoroughly to remove all residue and allow fabric to air dry.

For best results when cleaning upholstered pieces, clean the entire surface area of the fabric, from seam to seam, instead of rubbing the fabric in a circular motion on the spill. This method, along with an extractor, may be required in order to avoid water rings and residue.

Oil-Based Stains

If a stubborn oil-based stain persists after cleaning, treat with a strong degreaser and rinse thoroughly.

Mold and Mildew

Sunbrella fabrics do not promote mildew growth, however, mildew may grow on dirt and other foreign substances if not removed from the fabric. To remove mold or mildew:

• Prepare a solution of 1 cup of bleach and 1/4 cup mild soap per gallon of water
• Spray on entire area and allow to soak into the fabric for 15 minutes.
• Clean entire surface area with a sponge, clean towel or very soft bristle brush.
• Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
• Air dry.

For severe mold/mildew growth, bleach quantities may be increased.

Indoor Upholstery

• Apply a light mist of mild soap and water using a spray bottle.
• Work the solution into the stain by lightly agitating the entire surface area of the fabric, moving from seam to seam, with a sponge or very soft bristle brush. Avoid scrubbing, and do not use a hard-bristled brush or anything that will abrade the fabric.
• Rinse the entire fabric thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
• Blot excess moisture with a clean, soft towel or sponge.
• Blot or wet-vacuum excess water from the entire surface area of the fabric, moving from seam to seam.
• Air dry. Repeat rinsing and blotting until all soap residue is removed.

Machine Washing

Some removable casings can be washed in the washing machine, however consult the furniture manufacturer before removing the casing as cushion construction may vary. To wash, first close all zippers. Machine wash in cold water on the delicate cycle with normal amounts of mild laundry detergent. Allow fabric to air dry.

Oil-Based Stains

If a stubborn oil-based stain persists after cleaning treat with a strong degreaser and rinse thoroughly.

Spot Cleaning for Oil-Based Stains
To treat more challenging stains such as salad dressing, immediately apply an absorbent, such as
cornstarch, directly on the stain. Let the absorbent sit for 10 minutes to help lift the stain. Remove the
excess using a straight edge or ruler to prevent the stain from being pressed into the fabric. It is imperative
to utilize vacuum extraction to remove any excess absorbent. Follow with the routine spot cleaning
process. *Some stains, like permanent marker, mustard or nail polish may not be completely removable
