The Kuranda beds can be cleaned with warm, soapy water and a mild disinfectant. Kuranda beds can be hosed down with your average garden hose or pressure hose. To dry you can wipe them down or leave them upright to dry. The 40oz vinyl and ballistic nylon fabrics are non-absorbent, this means they will dry as soon as you wipe them down. Harsh chemicals and bleach solutions are not recommended on all Kuranda products. Do note that bleach and chloride solutions will cause discoloration of fabrics and corrosion of the Kuranda frames and corners.
