I would try a Magic Eraser, it seems to really help with getting spot mold stains out for me.

Hi Pat,

I used Krud Kutter on all my outdoor furniture, and had great results. I sprayed the Krud Kutter, let it sit for probably about 30 minutes, and scrubbed the mesh with a scrub bush. When I hosed them off they looked pretty darn good! There are also various Krud Kutter formulas, and I've never had bad results from any. I've used the kitchen, mold&mildew, carpet cleaner, and heavy duty.

Home Depot/Lowes carry a product called Spray it & Forget it that removes mold from outdoor furniture. It runs around $15 and is easy to use. Check out their video on their website.

I use 1 of these 2 ways depending on the fabric care tag, as sometimes the vinegar 1 will break down the mesh( not too often does this happen) But I mix 2 cups of white vinegar with 2 tbs of liquid DISH soap in bucket of hot water. Use a soft brush to work in the groves. Let it sit for a bit and then rinse. I keep a spray bottle around with vinegar in it and as soon as I see some mildew starting a give a quick spray it wipes off right away. If you are worried about the vinegar breaking down the mesh, then try this. Brush lightly with soft bristle brush. Dilute 1 tbs of POWDERED Laundry detergent in cup of warm water until detergent is dissolved. Using just a cloth start at top of chair and work down in small circles. Rinse. I have started spraying all my outdoor furniture with waterproof spray and cushions too. Always have dry seats and helps stop them from getting dirty and mildew.

I use a bleach and water mixture. Spray on, let sit for about 10 minutes and hose off! I do it every year on my patio furniture. Works wonderfully! Good luck!

I use Awesome , found in dollar stores. Works great on just about anything.

Thanks so much for everyone’s help! Going to try to tackle this today before we get even MORE RAIN!

Patrice · Answer

Done! Scrubbed with a bristled brush and used bathroom cleaner- “scrub free” with bleach. Wouldn’t have thought of this without your suggestions! Thanks again!

You could try a power washer, set at a low pressure so as not to blow out or stretch the fabric. Diluting some Simple Green in a spray bottle would definitely do the trick.

We love a product called Simple Green. We find it Home Depot. It works fabulously with the power washer, but it also works well with a scrub brush. It's better than bleach because bleach can yellow whites over time and it can also eat away at the fabric.

Use Awesome from the Dollar Tree & a scrub brush. Or the Dollar store version of Oxyclean.

You need to add a booster to the pressure washing. Whichever you choose, make sure you let it sit for a while before washing off. Awesome, Krud Kutter, Simple Green, would all be good options.
