Cleaning sunscreen with soda
Does your neighbor always clean everything with soda? In the bathroom, that may not be a problem. However, do not use soda for your sun cloths. It may seem like such a useful product, but I strongly advise against it. Green soap and soda leave a greasy layer on your cloth. Fungi and algae don't mind at all. They attach great importance to that. Obviously that's not what you want.
Never clean sunscreen green soap
There are always people who clean their sunscreens with green soap. That is very unfortunate. Of your time and also of your canvas. You will have to clean again soon. Algae and fungi attach themselves to the greasy layer that is left behind by this soap. Green soap is a great product, but not suitable for cleaning sunscreens.

Is there much-needed maintenance? What's on the screen? A screen that has not been maintained for a long time often causes:
- Dust and sand, after long neglect also something or a lot attached to the canvas
- Fatty deposits due to soot and exhaust gases
- Algae, mosses and leak marks
- bird pop
- fungi
