Getting these canvas awning’s clean..

Any suggestion on what to use to get the green off these canvas awnings? I sprayed 30 second on it but it needs to be better . Pics of what it looked like and what I’ve done so far. I don’t do this for a living. But landscape and helping a client on this.

You need to stop wasting money on overpriced bleach and just buy pool chlorine in the pool section. Mix it 50/50 in a pump sprayer. Brush it in. If that doesn't knock it down, add more bleach to the pump sprayer to make it hotter. May take several applications.

Thanks..but not doing pressure washing on a regular basis. I just don’t want to mess up the black fabric. I’m sure those awnings are costly.

Stick to stuff you know how to do

I agree with this.

The risk is not worth the reward in this situation.

Guarantee if they get wrecked he'll be expected to replace them.

What if those awnings are 10k, you gonna replace them?

Call a pro, ask them how much, pay them and charge your customer more.

I use the camco awning cleaner on my camper awnings. Its not terribly harsh and will remove crap from years of mildewing. A soft extended handle brush and some awning clear and a garden hose has always done the trick.

Barkeepers friend. Comes in a can...looks like comet but is just powdered oxalic acid...no abrasives.
Wet the canvas...dust it with Barkeepers friend and work it in with a plastic bristle brush. Let it sit for a few then blast it.

I use this on Sunbrella boat covers with good results.
