Product Information

The worst you can expect is to see your nice white canvas material turn an ugly yellowish color. You may lose some brightness as well and the material will look dingy. If you use the wrong amount or the wrong kind of bleach expect the fibers to weaken, etc., and lose some color. First and foremost, be sure to choose a drop cloth that covers the floor, furniture, and items you have not removed from the room.

There are two ways that bleach will damage your canvas items. Doesn’t matter the item, they are all made of the same material and the damage will be the same if you make the same mistake.

The first way damage will come is if you use too much bleach to clean the material. By too much, we mean you added in more than you need or diluted it with less water than you should have. Strong bleach will damage the fabric. Then set your spray to the level you want and spray the solution onto the shoes. You can adjust the strength of the mixture to fit your needs and time frame. You won’t need a Q tip as the spray will get the hard to reach spots as well as the small ones.

Yes, you can and if you have a nice canvas awning that needs cleaning, all you need to do is rinse the awning while it is in place. Then mix 1 tsp of dishwashing soap in 4 cups of warm water and add in 1 tbsp of borax. If you’re using rosin paper or vinyl tablecloth to protect your floors, use this tip to paint like a pro. Tape the edges of your chosen drop cloth to the surface of the wall to ensure protection. Lay the edge of the paper or tablecloth about an inch away from the edge of the wall, then tape it down using medium-grade painter’s tape. As you do this, make sure to get as close to the edge of the wall as you possibly can.Whether you have hardwood or carpet flooring, keeping your floors safe from paint splatters and spills is a priority.

Remove All Items From Your Room One safety note, never mix vinegar and bleach when cleaning canvas materials. You ill be creating a toxic chlorine gas and cause damage to your organs. Some people do not like using bleach on canvas and recommend against using it. Salt and hot water scrub- this is where you mix a cup of hot water and 1 tbsp of salt. Then you use an old toothbrush to clean the yellowed area. When the stain starts to disappear, let the shoes dry for about 20 minutes before making another application. Do this until the yellow is gone. If you want to bleach canvas shoes, use oxygen or color-safe bleach that doe snot have chlorine in it. Also, make sure to use a diluted formula to keep the strength of the bleach to a minimum.

You can use the 2 previous methods to get the canvas shoes white but the first method, the rag one, is labor-intensive and will take you a long time to get done. When using the tartar option, do not skip the cold rinse. Tartar sauce is acidic and will or may damage your shoes if you leave it on them. While canvas will be the best choice for most home renovation jobs (thanks to its safety and absorbency), plastic, paper, and the poly/paper combination are also affordable, solid options for interior works like painting.

Excellent for covering sofas/couches. Heavy duty material, yet not too stiff. Only comes in one color, but not a problem for our needs. The second way bleach will harm canvas is if you use chlorine bleach instead of color-safe oxygen bleach on your colored awnings. Using the wrong bleach solution will remove the color and make sure your awning loses its ‘sex’ appeal.
