i was just wondering if anyone has ever removed their bimini top (white in color) and soaked it with a little bleach and then washed it in the washing machine..... or any other cleaning ideas....

Ran mine (Sunbrella) through the wash, mild detergent, hung to dry. If the material was treated to resist water you will need to re-treat if you so choose, since it's not a "cover" per say, it really is not necessary, if anything perhaps a UV protectant would be all you need.

I heard Oxy Clean does a decent job. I won't recommend bleach.

If its sunbrella, I highly recommend cleaning and waterproofing with 303 products (its the only stuff sunbrella recommends). I used the fabric cleaner and then the fabric guard on my bimini and it looks great and sheds water.
