Boat canvas Sunbrella Plus: 3x more water resistant thanks to acrylic fabric coating 

Made from the high quality traditional standard Sunbrella fabric, Sunbrella Plus offers superior water resistance thanks to its durable acrylic undercoating:
3 times more water resistant than conventional(standard) fabric. In the same it keeps a good breathability to avoid the condensation and moisture.
Maximum resistance to mildew: the acrylic coating of Sunbrella Plus contains a special seawater anti-fungal treatment.  

Even more information about Sunbrella Plus waterproof fabric

Sunbrella Plus sports the same base fabric as Sunbrella Marine and Awning but has a urethane coating for even greater water and abrasion resistance. Use coated side down, away from the elements, and use caution when patterning as there is an inside and outside of the fabric. Works great for tops where extra water resistance is ideal. Colors are extremely consistent and can be mixed and matched between Sunbrella Marine Grade, Plus, Supreme or even SeaMark. Use for dodgers, biminis, tops, full canvas enclosures, boat covers, awnings, equipment covers, and bags. 

• Breathe Ability: The urethane coating decreases breathe ability; however, the end result is a well balanced fabric. Fabric breathes enough yet is water tight for full enclosure applications.
• Waterproof: Sunbrella Plus is perhaps the best choice when looking for a material that is highly water resistant yet breathes. The urethane coating adds an additional barrier to leakage and lasts longer than aftermarket waterproofing sprays.
• Abrasion Resistance: The urethane coating at the down-side of the fabric also helps increase resistance to abrasion (to coated side only). Fortunately the coated side is usually the side that rubs against the boat’s frame, track, rails, etc.
• UV Resistance: There is no better material for outdoor use than Sunbrella! Excellent longevity and colorfastness even when exposed to harsh sunlight. The only way to get more life from a fabric is to make it heavier or to ply on another layer of fabric (SeaMark or Sunbrella Supreme).
• Colour fastness: Solution dyed means that the yarn color runs throughout the cross-section of the fiber and equates to excellent colorfastness.
• Clean Ability: Easy to clean, and although a soft tight weave, dirt easily washes free from the crevasses of the yarn. The urethane coating on one side does make dislodging dirt slightly more difficult than cleaning standard Sunbrella Marine Grade. 

Sunbrella Marine waterproof fabric

Even the harshest marine environments are no match for Sunbrella waterproof fabric. That's because its rich color is an integral part of the fiber and can't be washed away or bleached out by the sun, rain or chlorine. Rest assured your boat cover will look fabulous nautical mile after mile.

Fabrics that breathe. Because our fabric is woven for breathability, it doesn't trap heat and moisture, eliminating mildew. As a result, Sunbrella stays fresh and beautiful season after season.

Protection from the elements. In addition to longevity and durability, Sunbrella boat canvas also provides protection from the sun so you can enjoy long hours on the water. The Sunbrella fabrics carry the Skin Cancer Foundation's Seal of Recommendation, giving your family and friends the extra assurance they need.

The right top on your boat makes all the difference to both utility and enjoyment. And Sunbrella marine canvas fills the bill, no matter what your needs. Nothing beats Sunbrella fabric for durability, weather-resistance or long-lasting beauty. There's just no better investment you can make, which is why Sunbrella is the number one marine fabric in the world.
 
And the right boat top is indeed an excellent investment, enabling you to get far more enjoyment from your boat. By adding a bimini and cockpit enclosure made of Sunbrella fabric, you can start your boating season earlier in the spring and end it later in the fall or early winter. Plus, you always have the crucial sun protection you need. And, of course, a Sunbrella® cover gives your boat unsurpassed protection when you're not on the water.

Cleaning Sunbrella boat fabric

One of the best ways to keep Sunbrella boat fabric looking good is to hose the fabric off on a monthly basis with clear water. This helps prevent dirt from becoming deeply embedded in the fabric and eliminates the need for more frequent vigorous cleaning. In most environments, a thorough cleaning will be needed every two to three years.

When it’s time for a thorough cleaning, Sunbrella fabrics can be cleaned while still on a boat or, size permitting, they can be removed for cleaning dock side.

General or light cleaning of Sunbrella Plus boat canvas 

To clean Sunbrella boat canvas while still on a boat, follow these simple steps:

• Brush off loose dirt.

• Hose down.

• Prepare a cleaning solution of water and mild soap

such as Woolite or Dawn dishwashing liquid.

• Use a soft bristle brush to clean.

• Allow cleaning solution to soak into the fabric.

• Rinse thoroughly until all soap residue is removed.

• Air dry.

• May not require re-treatment depending on the age of the fabric.

If stubborn stains persist, you can use a diluted bleach/soap mixture

for spot cleaning of mildew. For roof run-off or other similar stains a

strong degreaser made be required (see our Stain Chart for specific

recommendations).

Heavy cleaning for stubborn stains and mildew on Subrella boat canvas

Sunbrella fabrics do not promote mildew growth, however, mildew may grow on dirt and other foreign substances that are not removed from the fabric. To clean stubborn stains:

• Prepare a solution of 1 cup bleach and 1/4 cup

of mild soap per gallon of clean water.

• Soak affected area in solution for 15 minutes.

• Blot stain with a sponge or clean towel. (Note: This

step should be avoided when cleaning the coated side

(Back side) of Sunbrella Plus, Supreme, or Clarity.)

• Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.

• Air dry.

Note: Use caution when cleaning the coated (underside) of Sunbrella Plus, Supreme, or Clarity with the recommended bleach solution. The coated side of the fabric should only be sprayed with the recommended bleach solution and rinsed thoroughly. Remember to protect the area around your Sunbrella fabric if using a bleach solution. Carpet or other fabrics that are not Sunbrella may have an adverse reaction to the bleach.

RE-TREATING THE FABRIC FOR EASE OF CLEANING:

As part of the finishing process, Sunbrella fabrics are treated with a fluorocarbon finish, which enhances water repellency. This finish is designed to last for several years, but must be replenished after a thorough cleaning. Based on test results, Glen Raven® recommends 303® Fabric Guard™ as the preferred re-treatment product for Sunbrella fabrics. Fabrics should be re-treated after thorough cleaning or as needed.

For more information, visit www.303products.com.

APPLYING 303 FABRIC GUARD

303 should be applied to Sunbrella fabrics after each thorough cleaning, which typically removes the original finish and reduces the fabric’s water repellency.

• Clean Sunbrella fabric, using one of the cleaning methods.

• Allow Sunbrella to completely air dry.

• Apply 303 Fabric Guard in a well ventilated area, following instructions on the container.

• Apply 303 in a thin, even coat and allow fabric to dry completely.

• Apply a second thin, even coating of 303. (Two light coatings are more effective in restoring fabric water resistance than a single heavy coating.). Note: A 16-ounce bottle provides coverage of up to 75-100 square feet of fabric depending on material and application method.

PROFESSIONAL CLEANERS

You may have access to professional cleaning firms. In evaluating the services of a professional firm, you should inquire about a firm’s experience in working with Sunbrella fabrics and knowledge of cleaning and re-treatment requirements.

HELPFUL HINTS

Protect the area around the Sunbrella fabric when using a bleach solution:

– bleach may discolor non-Sunbrella fabrics. Always rinse Sunbrella thoroughly to completely remove bleach.

Please be aware of the environment when cleaning with bleach. Bleach can have harmful effects on the natural environment around you. We do not advise using bleach if you are surrounded by a body of water or other environment that could be affected. Sunbrella should only be allowed to air dry. Use of bleach and/or advanced age of the fabric application may impact the deterioration of the sewing thread and other non-Sunbrella components.
