Patio Furniture | Outdoor Furniture Cleaning Tips To Extend The Life Of Your Furniture

Many people take a week every Spring and devote it completely to Spring cleaning, which should be the case with your patio furniture as well. However, even throughout the summer you should continue cleaning your patio furniture.

You have to consider the weather, pollen, leaves, trees, insects, pets, and everything else you can imagine. If you do not clean up after all of them continuously it will become damaged. However, if you treat it like you’re using your furniture near a pool it will be a different story.

See, chlorine is one of those chemicals that can eat away your outdoor furniture cushions. In order to keep them away from damage you need to wipe them down at the end of each day.

It’s also important to understand that there are different cleaning measures for all the various Patio Furniture out there. Wood may need to be sanded down if they have dirt built up and stained to provide a protective seal.

Aluminum is similar to wood in the sense it will not damage as easily. It will not rust because it develops a protective outer exterior to prevent corrosion after being exposed to air.

Plastic and resin Patio Furniture needs to be cleaned with a mild detergent mixed with water. It’s important to do this so hard build ups don’t occur. If it does you will have a hell of a time removing it.

When it’s time to store your Patio Furniture for the rest of the year, a thorough cleaning needs to take place. Most cushions have some sort of removable zipper covers, which definitely helps with the cleaning process.

If you use any harsh chemicals, it could end up eating away the paint during the storage period. Now, you can use bleach, but you have to mix it with water before spraying it on your furniture. Taking this route means you have to remove any fabric first. Oh, and never use bleach on wood.

If you have patio furniture that does have cushions, then it is important that you store the cushions separate from the actual base of the sofa or chair. However, do not wrap the cushions in plastic. This will only encourage mildew or mold due to the circulation of air being trapped in the plastic.

Your best option is an air tight plastic container. Also, make sure you remember to keep them in a cool and dry area. If this is not an option then you will have to invest in some good Patio Furniture covers.

These should be able to fit any type of furniture and provide a heavy or sturdy appeal. This will help it withstand the weather conditions in your area. If you can do all these things whenever necessary you will have your outdoor furniture for many years to come.
