Took mine to the laundromat. $10.00 in quarters and it was like brand new. I purchased a fabric waterproofing spray from the local marine store. Laid the cover flat and generously sprayed it without saturating it. Completely waterproof and clean.

Be careful. I had one made once...washed it with a pressure washer and scrub brush. Hung it over a fence to dry. It shrunk ad never fit the boat again.

I used the yellow color Simple Green yesterday on moldy Sunbrella, which I thought wasn't supposed to mold. Anyway, sprayed on and let sit in the sun on the driveway. Then sprayed on more and scrubbed lightly with a stiff bristle brush, rinsed and let sit in the sun the rest of the day. Looks new.
