PVC coated tarpaulin is a great material for a variety of applications, including outdoor protection and covering items during transport. Its waterproof and UV-resistant qualities make it an ideal choice for outdoor projects. However, over time, tarpaulin can become stained and dirty, making it difficult to use and detracting from its overall appearance. Fortunately, there are a number of ways to keep your tarpaulin clean and in good condition.

  • Scrub the surface using a soft brush and a mild cleaning solution

  • Rinse off the cleaning solution with warm water

  • Allow the tarpaulin to dry completely before storing

  • Inspect the tarpaulin for any signs of damage

  • When folding, use creases and not sharp folds to prevent from cracking the PVC coating


Scrub the surface using a soft brush and a mild cleaning solution

To properly clean PVC coated tarpaulin, start by scrubbing the surface with a soft brush and a mild cleaning solution. This will ensure that any dirt particles and debris are effectively removed before any other cleaning methods are applied. Be sure to use a brush with soft bristles, as hard bristles can cause damage to the PVC coating. Once the surface has been scrubbed, rinse with clean water.


Rinse off the cleaning solution with warm water

After you have wiped the PVC coated tarpaulin with the cleaning solution, it is important to rinse off any residue with warm water. This will help ensure that there is no soapy or cleaning solution residue left on the fabric. Additionally, warm water will help remove any dirt and debris that may have been left on the surface of the tarpaulin. For best results, use a gentle stream of warm water and be sure to rinse the fabric completely.


Allow the tarpaulin to dry completely before storing

After rinsing your PVC coated tarpaulin thoroughly with a hose, it is important to allow it to dry completely before storing. If you do not allow the tarpaulin to dry before storing, mildew and mold can form and cause potential damage. To avoid this, hang the tarpaulin in a sunny and well-ventilated area until it is completely dry. It is recommended that you check the tarpaulin occasionally and turn it over in order to ensure that all of the surfaces are dry.


Inspect the tarpaulin for any signs of damage

Before beginning the cleaning process, it is important to inspect the PVC coated tarpaulin for any signs of damage. This includes checking for tears, punctures, rips, and fraying. If any damage is visible, it is important to make the necessary repairs before cleaning the tarpaulin to ensure the integrity of the material. Any areas that are damaged should be mended with a patching kit or other appropriate repair materials.


When folding, use creases and not sharp folds to prevent from cracking the PVC coating

During the cleaning process of a PVC coated tarpaulin, creases should be used instead of sharp folds to prevent the coating from cracking. While the tarp is folded, make sure that the coating is not stretched too much, as this can also cause the coating to crack. Always be mindful of the creases and their direction to ensure that the coating is not broken. Follow the same folding pattern for each tarpaulin to prevent wear and tear.


With proper care and maintenance, your PVC coated tarpaulin should last a long time, providing you with the protection you need and making your outdoor activities more enjoyable. Star Ocean's products are of excellent quality, welcome to buy.
