Can this be used on outdoor furniture cushions to prevent fabric fading?

I don't see why not. I used it on a nylon roof cargo bag for my car. It was heavy duty and already water "resistant", but I think it really helped driving through the snow and rain in the mid/north west USA. I have only need to use my cargo bag a few times since I bought it so the color hasn't started to fade. But the product does block UV which is the main reason of fading fabrics/plastics.

Should work if the fading is because of water - not sure if it helps with UV fading from sunlight. I have used it on a backpack and it works well as a water proofing. However, there is a lingering vinegar smell that takes about a week to dissipate, so you will need to time the application to a time when you have 7 - 10 days where you won't need the cushions.

I used this product on spotted silk upholstered chairs that I found in a consignment store but it didn't work. I think the stains were too old. It did not mark or stain the fabric so if your stain is recent I would try it.

We have used the covers for our winter here in South lake Tahoe with good results. They have protected our outdoor furniture successfully. The cushions were dry when we uncovered this last weekend.

I bought this for my mom. I think she used it on cushions. I know she used it on an indoor rug with great success. Took the rug outside, washed it and let it dry in the sun. Now it's as good as new.

I used it on leather golf shoes and a micro fiber pullover, no problem. I have not used it furniture though and would do a small section first if I was you.

Even though this Poly-fil is machine washable, I think that you would want it encased in a water resistant fabric to prevent it from becoming water saturated, creating a medium for mold if it is not dried out promptly and thoroughly. Fairfield sells such a cushion with its Poly-fil being encased in a water resistant "shell" - Fairfield Weather Soft - but most are in the form of throw pillow sizes not necessarily outdoor furniture sizes....They can be found on Amazon.com or Fabric.com - Fairfieldworld.com-joann.com

I have not really used it for any fabrics. I am assuming you can use it on your fabric couch, but it will leave it pretty damp.

Our furniture is on a covered porch. We use the cover if it's going to rain, but if we forget, the cushions will get wet. In a light rain, the water beads and can be dried off easily. If they get a little more wet, we just stand them on their side and they dry very quickly. We've had the set for more than a year and love it. The cushions will fade in the sun, but I'm not aware of any that won't have some amount of fading in sunlight.

None I saw but have had outside for a year in NC sun and rain. holding up well other than expected fading on cushions. Comes with a cover you can use if you stack them. survived poolside with grandkids so far :)

Not sure but I would think it would be great for any outdoor furniture to repel water. I would stick to a fabric guard product for rugs such as Scotch Guard.

I have spot cleaned with a fabric/carpet cleaner spray product and a damp cloth. No fading or any problems.

I wouldn't expose this product to sunlight. Uv light breaks down most epoxies. You would have to strip it and recoat every year. Try a marine varnish for outdoor furniture

I have some on wicker chairs ... but I don't know why you couldn't use them on wrought iron. The cushions weather well and still look great after a year.

Not sure since I was only looking for indoor cushions. Probably could check with the manufacturer. If your furniture doesn't get wet, then maybe it could be okay.

Never mind the cushions. Our all weather furniture is crumbling from sun exposure after two summers. I would NOT BUY this furniture.

I have used this product on my Acacia wood outdoor furniture. Our weather has been 85 - 95 all summer and my furniture looks great. Arizona Sun is much more intense, but,I think this will be good on your furniture. I redo my furniture every summer and it continues to look great. Hope this helps. (I have used other products that did not work well. this product I would recommend to anyone)

I don't think so. I used it on a light tan cushion and it did not cover well.
