What’s important to know about Sunforger army duck?
At the end of the day, the fabric is cotton-based. Be sure to dry your outdoor shelter or structure properly. There is a chance of mold and mildew blooming. Never wash your structure; spot clean it with diluted dish water detergent and a brush. Other occurrences of mold and mildew usually appear on the north side of the structure, which has the least exposure to sun. If this Sunforger army duck is handled properly it could last for years. We have customers that have had their tipis up for over 5 years with no issues. It also depends on the climate you are in, but a moist humid climate is a perfect breeding ground for mildew. So, take extra care with your tipi or tent in these climate zones.
