Can canvas fabric outdoor bar stools be treated to resist mildew without chemicals?
Canvas fabric outdoor bar stools can indeed be treated to resist mildew without harsh chemicals. Natural solutions like vinegar, baking soda, or tea tree oil diluted in water can be applied to the fabric to inhibit mold growth. Sunlight exposure and proper ventilation also help keep mildew at bay. Regularly brushing off debris and ensuring the stools dry completely after rain are key preventive steps. For added protection, consider using a beeswax-based waterproofing spray. These methods maintain the fabric’s durability while avoiding synthetic treatments. Always test any solution on a small area first to ensure colorfastness. With consistent care, your canvas stools can stay mildew-free and fresh for seasons to come.
