Fabric and upholstery protector - TexGuard

Limits the ingress of water and grease into fabrics, carpets, rugs, upholstery and awnings without changing the colour or structure of the material. Spray on this fluorinated-resin protector undiluted.

Product image: Fabric and upholstery protector - TexGuard

A fabric protector based on fluorinated resin, applied by spray. It limits the ingress of water and grease into the fibre - soiling stays on the surface instead of entering the material.

It changes neither the colour nor the texture of the fabric. Apply it to clean, dry material - treating dirty fabric fixes the soiling in place.

Typical uses are upholstery, carpets and rugs, and outdoor fabrics - awnings and parasols.

Fabrics differ in composition and dye more than building materials do, so every treatment starts with a test.

  1. Test on a seam underneath or on a section hidden by a cushion. You are checking not only the colour but whether the material stiffens.
  2. Vacuum the fabric first - dust bound in by the protector stays in it for good.
  3. Remove stains first, protect second. The other way round fixes the soiling in place.
  4. Work in a ventilated room and cover the floor and furniture around it.
  5. Let the fabric dry completely before use.

Will the protector change the colour or stiffness of the fabric?

No - the protector is formulated to change neither the colour nor the texture of the material. Confirm it with a test on an inconspicuous section before treating the whole piece.

Will it work on an awning or a garden parasol?

Yes - TexGuard is made for fabrics, and awnings are named among its substrates. Before you start, make sure the fabric is clean and completely dry.

How often should fabric be re-treated?

Whenever water stops beading. Washing and heavy use gradually wear the protection down, so check how water behaves afterwards: while it stays on the surface, the treatment is working.

How can I tell if the treatment has survived washing?

With a drop of water. After washing, put a few drops on the fabric: if the water starts to soak in instead of beading on the surface, repeat the treatment.

Is it suitable for an awning?

Yes - awnings and parasols are a typical use. The material has to be clean and completely dry.
