CARE & MAINTENENCE

Exceptional care is essential for fine outdoor furniture, as it can ensure the longevity of Leisure Furniture for many years to come. To maintain the furniture's quality, wash it with a mild detergent and water solution, rinse with clear water, and ensure it's thoroughly dried. Apply a fine, clear automobile wax to all metal frames for maximum protection against harmful ultraviolet exposure and salt air.

For optimal protection, perform this maintenance two or three times annually in areas with low pollution, or more frequently in high pollution areas. It's important to note that these robust materials can be safely cleaned as often as necessary. However, please be aware that certain suntan and sunblock products may damage resin, cushions, mesh, and vinyl straps.

FURNITURE GUIDE

SLING FURNITURE
To remove light stains, mix a solution of mild detergent and water, then rinse with clear water and dry completely. For mildew and heavy stains, use a commercial outdoor furniture cleaner and protectant.
STRAP FURNITURE
To prevent the harmful effects of mildew, air pollution, and salt air build-up, it's recommended to use a high-quality vinyl protectant. Additionally, for stubborn stains, a soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol can be used to remove them.
ECOWOOD FURNITURE
Cleaning Ecowood and fiberglass table tops can be achieved by using a mild, biodegradable detergent with a soft damp cloth or sponge. In the event of soda or juice stains, a mild solution consisting of no more than 1:3 bleach to water or hydrogen peroxide is suitable. After cleaning, it's essential to rinse the table top thoroughly with clean water.
FABRIC CUSHIONS
Durable outdoor fabrics are specifically crafted to withstand years of exposure to sunlight, dirt, and moisture. To clean outdoor cushion fabrics, use a mild detergent and water solution, ensuring to rinse them thoroughly with clear water. Stand the cushions upright and allow them to air dry completely. For light stains, the same cleaning method can be used. For more stubborn issues like mildew and heavy stains, it is recommended to utilize a high-quality commercial outdoor furniture cleaner and protectant. Please note that dry cleaning, washing machines, dryers, steaming, and water temperatures above 100°F should not be used.  Lastly, avoid using chlorine-based cleaners.

UMBRELLA GUIDE

UMBRELLA FABRICS
Gently remove dust and dirt from the fabric by brushing it with a soft brush. It is important to avoid using stiff brushes as they can potentially harm the fabric finish. Spray the umbrella with clean water, taking care to avoid using high pressure if a hose is being used. Create a solution of soap that is free from solvents, and mix it with warm water, ensuring that the temperature does not exceed 100°F. Apply the solution to both the fabric and stitching. Using a soft brush, gently scrub the fabric, allowing the solution to deeply penetrate the material. Thoroughly rinse the fabric with water to eliminate any remaining traces of soap. Allow the umbrella to air dry completely before closing it. It is crucial to ensure that the canvas is completely dry before folding and storing the umbrella.
UMBRELLA BASES
If you observe the presence of rust stains, rinse the steel product with a combination of warm water and mild detergent to determine its origin. Once you have identified the damaged area, use warm water, white vinegar, and a stainless steel wire brush (avoid using steel wire brushes as they can leave additional iron deposits on the surface) to scrub off the visible rust. Once the rust (orange oxidation) is no longer visible, apply a thin layer of RUST-OLEUM® STOPS RUST® RUST INHIBITOR SPRAY to the affected area. Subsequently, apply the closest matching RUST-OLEUM® paint available at your local hardware store. It is possible for rusty water stains to appear due to rusting ferrous metal deposits on the surface, rather than originating from the actual product. This is most likely to occur around the umbrella stem/threads. To address this, remove the stem and clean it using fresh warm water, white vinegar, and a soft sponge or brush. Afterward, dry the area with a towel, and proceed to apply WD-40 SPECIALIST LONG TERM CORROSION INHIBITOR to the threads of the umbrella stem and the female receiving cup of the stem.
