OUTDOOR FURNITURE Care & Maintenance
Outdoor furniture can be enjoyed for many years when well maintained
Regular Maintenance:
Wash the furniture with a solution of mild detergent and water, rinse with clear water, and dry
thoroughly. To all metal frames, apply a fine, clear
automobile wax for maximum protection against harmful ultraviolet exposure and salt air.
For best protection, perform this maintenance two or three times per year in low pollution areas or
more frequently in high pollution areas. Please note
that these durable materials can be safely cleaned as often as desired. Note: Some suntan and sun block
products may be harmful to resin, cushions and
strap, mesh and vinyl lace and strap. Do not allow such products to come in contact with any seating
surfaces to avoid deep penetrating stains, which are
not covered under warranty.
How to Clean & Care for Teak Furnishings:
Left alone to age, the natural color of teak furnishings will weather to a soft, silver gray. This
process will take approximately nine months, depending on
the degree of sunlight and rain exposure. Imperfections, which are inherent properties of the wood, will
show over time, enhancing the beauty of the
furniture. In humid or wet climates, or after rains, the wood may naturally expand and contract, causing
the grain to rise. This is to be expected with
exposure to the elements and will stabilize after the initial weathering occurs. To maintain teak
furnishings, use a soft bristled utility brush and stroke
lightly in the direction of the grain to remove surface dust. For more stubborn dirt, the wood may be
washed with a mild solution of four parts laundry
detergent or dish washing soap to one part bleach in water, then rinsed thoroughly and allowed to dry
completely. Oiling the wood may cause mildew or
irregular coloring.
How to Clean Woven Furnishings:
Woven furnishings are made of durable and weatherproof extruded polyethylene resin weave.
Light stains and soils may be removed with a solution of
mild detergent and water, rinsed with clear water and dried thoroughly. Mildew and heavy stains can
be removed with a quality commercial outdoor
furniture cleaner and protectant. Woven furnishings may not be suitable for intensely hot climates.
