Outdoor Furniture Care
Outdoor furniture should be stored inside during
winter to avoid unnecessary weather damage. Most outdoor
furniture can be cleaned by washing with a mild detergent
(hand dishwashing liquid) and water, rinsed and dried.
Products made for cleaning, polishing, and protecting
auto surfaces, (such as vinyl, other plastics, painted
metals, etc.) are made to stand weathering and greater
abuse than those for strictly interior use. They will
work well for similar materials in outdoor furniture.
Look in auto supply departments of hardware and other
stores, or auto supply stores. Always read the label to
be sure they are recommended for the materials you have.
