We got a request to clean pressure wash someone’s boat canvas and before we turn it down. We are wondering if anyone has done this? And if so how?

I’ve never done it but I would think that a housewash mix would work pretty well. Maybe check over at pwr
Probably similar to awning cleaning.
General or light cleaning
To clean Sunbrella while still on a boat, follow these simple steps:
Sunbrella: Care & claening - Marine tops/covers
Brush off loose dirt.Hose down.Prepare a cleaning solution of water and mild soap such as Woolite or Dawn dishwashing liquid.Use a soft bristle brush to clean.Allow cleaning solution to soak into the fabric.Rinse thoroughly until all soap residue is removed.Air dry.May not require re-treatment depending on the age of the fabric.
If stubborn stains persist, you can use a diluted bleach/soap mixture for spot cleaning of mildew, roof run-off or other similar stains (see our Stain chart for specific recommendations).
Heavy cleaning for stubborn stains and mildew
Sunbrella fabric does not promote mildew growth, however, mildew may grow on dirt and other foreign substances that are not removed from the fabric. To clean stubborn stains:
Prepare a solution of 1 cup bleach and 1/4 cup mild soap per gallon of clean water.Soak affected area in solution for 15 minutes.Remove stain with a sponge or clean towel.Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.Air dry.
