AUSSIE WIND WALL – DETAILED CARE GUIDE
Your windbreak has been crafted using high-quality premium outdoor fabrics. With the right care, it will serve you for years to come — whether on the beach, at camp, or by the van.
Storage & General Maintenance
- Store Dry: Always ensure your windbreak is completely dry before packing it into the carry bag.
- Shade Preferred: When not in use, store it in a shaded, cool place to help extend the life of the fabric and prevent UV degradation.
- Keep it Clean: Dust, salt, and dirt can lead to mildew growth. Lightly vacuum or brush off debris regularly.
Spot Cleaning
- Act Quickly: Treat spills and marks as soon as possible to avoid staining.
- Blot — Don’t Rub: Gently dab with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid scrubbing.
- Cleaning Solutions: Use mild soapy water or a fabric-approved upholstery cleaner. Always follow the product’s instructions.
- Avoid Soaking: Never saturate the fabric or internal components with water.
Deeper Cleaning
- Hand Wash Only: For more thorough cleans, use a soft brush and warm, soapy water. Avoid strong detergents or laundry powders.
- Dry Naturally: Hang in the shade to air dry completely. Do not tumble dry.
- Professional Option: For heavy soiling or if machine washing is not suitable, we recommend professional upholstery cleaning.
Wooden Pole Care (Beach Mate)
- Maintenance: Clean poles with a damp cloth to remove sand and salt.
