Oilcloth is easy to clean with a warm, soapy sponge. Machine washing is not recommended. Fabric is waterproof in addition to being stain and soil resistant.

 

Please note: Variations may occur such as squiggles, speckles, and off-register printing and are inherent in the manufacturing process in Mexico, but these do not affect the quality of the oilcloth.

All fabric is printed on one side only.

Fold marks (creases) relax and smooth out in a short time-- faster in warm weather.

Spare cloth should be stored rolled, clean, and in a dry, cool storage area.

Fading may occur under intense direct sunlight for extended periods, but it's quite popular to use on covered patios.

This oilcloth has been tested and passes the National Fire Protection Agency 701 classification for commercial
and residential use.

Cut oilcloth may NOT be returned.

These 11 choices here have been the most popular oilcloth we've sold over the past 5 years.

Apples & Pears with red background is the most popular. Summer Fruit and Pears are vintage designs from re-engraved rollers. Poppy dates back to the 1930's and sets a handsome table. Tropic & Caribe are new patterns and great for Caribbean or beach decor. Hibiscus can be used for a Hawaiian look. Forever has a deep robin egg blue background and used for many non-Mexican decors. Mum is a large, detailed design and Cane is just festive. Solid red is a great contrast for most all of these prints.

When I think of beautiful Mexican kitchens, I conjure up pictures of thick adobe walls, handpainted tiles, wood carved spoons and clay cooking pots. Old kitchens would always have big buckets of fresh flowers, cascades of fresh fruit and herbs, braids of garlic and red chiles hanging over the stone metate. In the 1930's, oilcloth became a bright & colorful addition to the kitchen, work area, dining room and open-air market food stalls. It came in many delightful designs, which were influenced by European textile designs of the day. We carry the best oilcloth available; many designs come from re-engraved rollers that originated back in 1930's Mexico.
