3. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
3.1 Introduction
In order to enjoy your Dorema awning for a long time, correct main-
tenance is very important. Starting with the erecting of your awning for
instance. When an awning is not erected correctly, this will have con-
sequences on how all forces are divided equally on the fabric and this
can cause damage to the zips, windows, stitching, pegging points and
frame parts. But it is equally important to keep the canvas clean and
remove stains as soon as possible. In this paragraph we will try to provide
you with as much detailed information as possible which will benefit the
durability of your awning.
3.2 Cleaning your awning
During your holiday your awning can get pretty dirty. This can be caused
by a number of reasons of course. For instance, when you have expe-
rienced a long period of dry weather, a lot of dust can be found on top
of your awning. By regularly dusting the canvas with a dry brush you will
revent black runs from appearing after the first shower of rain.
You can already start with some of the maintenance during the last day of
your holiday. When the weather permits, you can already start to clean
the mud walls of the awning with lukewarm water and leave it to dry.
After you eventually dismantled the awning, you can clean the ground
sheet, draught skirt, wheel arch cover and pegs and dry them. The frame
can be cleaned with a moist cloth, making sure that especially the tele-
scopic parts are always stored dry.
For cleaning the awning you should, regardless of the type of material,
always use clean water (approx. 30 degrees) and a sponge or soft brush.
Do not use detergent at any time as this can seriously damage the
waterproof qualities of the canvas. We also strongly advise you not to
purchase any of the cleaning detergents for canvases which are available
at your camping stores, as these damage the waterproofing qualities of
the canvas. Re-impregnating the canvas afterwards will often not deliver
the desired effect.
Not all stains can be removed just with clean water. Below this we will
explain how specific stains can be removed for the greater part.
