FAQs

While it can be used indoors, it is specifically designed and optimized for outdoor durability and weather resistance. The material may feel different from indoor rugs.
How do I clean mud or dirt from the rug?
You can easily clean mud and dirt by rinsing the rug with a garden hose. For more embedded dirt, a gentle scrub with a mild soap and water solution using a soft brush can be effective, followed by a thorough rinse.
Can this rug be machine washed?

Will this rug dry quickly after rain?
Yes, the material is designed to be quick-drying, which helps prevent mildew and mould from forming. However, ensure it is fully dry before covering or storing.
What kind of surfaces can this rug be used on?
It is best used on hard, flat outdoor surfaces such as patios, decks, and balconies. It is not recommended for use on grass or gravel.
Troubleshooting
Rug not laying flat
Ensure the rug is laid out on a flat surface. Place heavy objects on the corners or edges for a few hours to help it settle. If placed on uneven ground, it may not flatten properly.
Mildew or mould spots appearing
Rinse the affected area thoroughly with a hose. Use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush for scrubbing. Ensure the rug is dried completely in the sun after cleaning.
Colour fading
While designed for outdoor use, prolonged direct sunlight can eventually cause fading. Try to reposition the rug to an area with partial shade or consider storing it during peak sun hours if fading is a concern.
Difficulty cleaning a stubborn stain
Try a specific outdoor fabric cleaner according to its instructions, or a diluted bleach solution (test on an inconspicuous area first). Always rinse thoroughly and dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care: To maintain the rug's appearance and longevity:
- Routine Cleaning: For dust and light debris, a simple sweep or shake is effective. For spills or dirt, use a garden hose to rinse the surface.
- Deeper Cleaning: For stubborn stains, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush or cloth. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to air dry completely before repositioning or covering.
- Maintenance: Avoid prolonged exposure to standing water. Ensure the rug is fully dry before storing it, especially during off-season periods.
