Velina Gold Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV stabilization protects this flat weave polyester rug from sun fade, while quick-drying fibers handle rain exposure on covered decks and patios. The Velina Gold Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug by LOOMLAN Rugs -- a geometric diamond motif area rug with non-skid TPR backing -- is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping.

Will the Color Fade in Direct Sun?

No -- UV stabilization keeps the gold tones from breaking down under continuous sun exposure. This matters on decks, screened porches, and near west-facing windows where standard dyed fabrics bleach out in six months. The polyester fiber itself is engineered to resist UV damage, not just coated with a temporary finish. You won't see white patches or washed-out diamonds after a summer outdoors.

Can This Outdoor Rug Get Wet?

Yes, and it dries fast enough to prevent mildew. Flat weave construction has no thick pile to trap moisture, so water drains through and evaporates quickly after a rainstorm or hose-down. The TPR backing is rubber-like and won't delaminate when wet, unlike latex-backed indoor rugs. If you're placing it on a covered porch or under outdoor accent chairs, spills wipe clean with a damp cloth before they set.

How Do I Clean It and Store It Over Winter?

Throw it in a standard washing machine on cold with mild detergent, then lay flat or hang to dry -- no dryer heat, which can warp the non-skid backing. For spot cleaning outdoors, hose it off and let it air-dry on the deck. If you're storing it for winter, roll it (don't fold) and keep it in a dry garage or shed. The ultra-thin 0.13-inch pile rolls tight and takes up minimal space. Find more care guidance on our outdoor living design page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this outdoor rug stay outside all year?

Yes, on covered patios and screened porches where it's protected from standing water and snow accumulation. UV stabilization and quick-drying polyester handle year-round exposure in those settings.

Will the non-skid backing work on composite decking?

Yes -- TPR backing grips tile, hardwood, and composite without adhesives or rug pads.

How do I choose the right size for a dining table?

Allow 24 inches of exposed rug on all sides when chairs are pulled out. An 8' x 10' rug fits most six-seat tables; 9' x 12' works for eight seats.

What's the advantage of a flat weave over a pile rug outdoors?

Flat weaves shed water and dirt instead of trapping them. The 0.13-inch profile also fits under doors and furniture legs without clearance issues.

Can I use this in a kitchen or mudroom?

Yes -- polyester resists stains and wipes clean quickly, and the non-skid backing keeps it secure on tile or hardwood in high-traffic areas.

Is shipping included for all sizes?

Yes, free curbside delivery to the continental USA for every size, from the 2'3" x 7'6" runner to the 10' x 14" large-format option.
