How do you get algae stains off outdoor cushions?

1. Blot up the algae stain as soon as possible. Don't rub it, as this can spread the stain.

2. Rinse the stained area with cold water.

3. Apply a cleaning solution to the stain. You can use a variety of cleaning solutions, such as:

- Dish soap

- Laundry detergent

- Borax

- Ammonia

- Bleach (for white cushions only)

4. Let the cleaning solution sit on the stain for at least 15 minutes.

5. Scrub the stain with a soft brush.

6. Rinse the cushion thoroughly with water.

7. Allow the cushion to dry completely.

8. If the stain is still visible, you may need to repeat the cleaning process.

Here are some additional tips for removing algae stains from outdoor cushions:

- If the cushions are made of a delicate fabric, such as silk or linen, test the cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area before applying it to the entire cushion.

- Avoid using harsh chemicals, such as bleach, on coloured cushions.

- Do not put wet cushions in the dryer, as this can set the stain.

- If you are not able to remove the stain, you may need to take the cushions to a professional cleaner.
