Can shade cloth be used directly after washing without drying?

After cleaning, it is best to air dry the shade cloth before use. Although it will not be immediately damaged in a wet state, using partially dried shade cloth directly may cause some problems. Firstly, damp shade cloths are heavier than dry ones, which may affect their stability in fixing and hanging, especially in environments with strong winds. Wet cloths are easily blown or pulled by the wind, leading to looseness or detachment. Secondly, wet cloth may adsorb more dust and pollutants in a humid environment for a long time, reducing the cleanliness and service life of shade cloth.
In addition, if the shade cloth is not completely dry before use, prolonged accumulation of water or moisture may accelerate the aging of the fabric, especially for those shade cloths with waterproof coatings or other special treatments. High humidity environments may affect their functionality and even cause mold or odor. Especially in humid weather conditions, sun shading cloth that has not been dried is prone to water accumulation, which may also affect its UV protection and breathability.
