Apply the mixture on top of the fabric and roll the awning up for five minutes. By rolling the awning up this will apply the mixture to the bottom of the fabric and allow the solution to remove any mildew or dirt.
Roll awning back out to its fully extended position and rinse off solution with fresh water. Repeat steps if necessary.
Allow the fabric to dry completely before rolling awning back up.
Your deep cycle battery has the capability of deeply discharging hundreds of times in its lifetime. Unlike an automotive battery(starting) which will only discharge less than 50 cycles in its lifetime. Your deep cycle battery has many applications such as motor homes, tent trailers, travel trailers, fifth wheels and boats.
