Protecting your Outdoor Lounge Set from all kinds of weather requires a little research

Protecting your Outdoor Lounge Set from all kinds of weather requires a little research. The materials used in outdoor furniture will be affected by the sun, rain, wind and snow. Even good weather can cause damage to furniture left on the patio or back yard areas, and this is a critical point to avoid overlooking. Prevention is the key to maintaining the condition of these items. Here are the best prevention tips that people use to keep their outdoor furnishings from rot, rust, dirt and related problems. Read on to find out how to protect outdoor furniture from the weather.

care for wrought iron and steel furniture

Cleaning iron and steel furniture thoroughly once a year gives you the perfect opportunity to find any rust spots before they grow beyond repair. Wash with soap and water, using a scrubbing brush or cloth, and rinse the soap off with clean water.

If you can see any rust spots, treat them now to stop them getting worse. Sand the rust off with steel wool or hand sander - depending on how big the area is. Clean the area again and fill any holes with an epoxy filler. Sand once more and, finally, prime and paint the metal furniture to protect it and restore it to its former beauty.

Caring for Your Metal Patio Furniture

Patio furniture made from metals like aluminum is pretty easy to maintain. Keep it clean with mild soap and water. Steer clear of abrasive cleaning agents like bleach or cleanser as this can damage the finish. Rinse thoroughly and use an old towel to wipe it dry.

Aluminum and other metals can sometimes build up calcium deposits, which are whitish spots that mar the finish of the metal and make it feel rougher to the touch. If you notice calcium build-up, wash the furniture down with a vinegar solution. You can make the solution by mixing one part vinegar to nine parts water.

It’s possible to leave your metal deck furniture outside over the winter, but you have to be careful to protect it. The most important thing is to prevent water from accumulating inside the frames, as freezing and melting can warp or damage the structure. Water sitting inside the frame for long periods of time can cause rust to form where you can’t see it or treat it, slowly eating away your investment from the inside.

If you do decide to leave your metal furniture in place over the winter, cover it securely with custom-fitted covers or very secure tarps, and check it periodically to make sure everything has been staying dry and protected. And of course, if you have enough indoor storage space for your furniture, storing it out of the reach of the elements will give it a longer lifespan.

Caring for aluminium garden furniture

Although aluminium garden furniture won’t rust, it still needs looking after over winter. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dirt or leaves. Next, wash remaining dirt and stains with hot water and soap. Rinse with clean water and apply water and vinegar using a soft cloth to polish the metal.

Don’t use anything abrasive as it will damage the surface of the aluminium. You can finish off your maintenance with a coat of car wax for extra protection.

Caring for plastic garden furniture

There’s no denying it, plastic comes up clean after a good wipe over or scrub. The added bonus of this type of furniture is that it generally weathers really well throughout the year. To avoid having to clean it or carry out minor repairs you should consider covering it with garden furniture covers. It goes without saying that if you want to keep something looking new, you should look after it by covering and protecting it.

Caring for rattan and wicker garden furniture

The woven nature of rattan and wicker garden furniture requires a little extra cleaning care. First, vacuum the piece with the soft brush attachment to remove dirt and dust from between the weave. Next, wipe with a damp cloth to remove any remaining dirt or mildew.
