What are the best ways to repair sun-rotted stitching on acrylic fabric cushions?
Sun exposure can weaken and rot the stitching on acrylic fabric cushions, but with the right techniques, you can restore them easily. First, remove loose or damaged threads using small scissors. Reinforce the weakened areas by hand-stitching with UV-resistant polyester thread, using a backstitch for durability. For larger repairs, consider using a sewing machine with a heavy-duty needle. Apply a fabric sealant to protect the threads from future sun damage. Regularly inspect and maintain your cushions to prolong their lifespan. These simple steps will keep your outdoor cushions looking great for seasons to come.
