Aluminum garden furniture

Aluminum garden furnitureAluminum garden furniture is quickly becoming a favorite among people with outdoor living spaces. To be even more specific, aluminum garden furniture has become a favorite of those who want durable, stylish, light, rustproof, and low maintenance patio furniture. Of course, although very low maintenance, completing some maintenance on your aluminum garden furniture will help ensure it has a long and beautiful life.

Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your aluminum garden furniture – different manufacturer’s may have slightly different instructions as to how to care for the aluminum garden furniture. The care tips can depend partially upon whether your aluminum garden furniture is made of extruded, wrought, or cast aluminum. Here are some basic tips, gathered from a variety of different manufacturers, including Woodard, Summer Classics, and Homecrest:

• Hose – for basic cleaning, just hose down your furniture relatively frequently.
• Mild soap – use a simple solution of warm water and mild (biodegradable) soap to periodically wash your aluminum garden furniture. It is especially important to clean the frame as quickly as possible if it is exposed to chemicals like those found in insect repellents and suntan lotions. Some finishes on aluminum garden furniture could be discolored by such chemicals.
• Scuff marks – you can remove scuff marks by using a light abrasive. For deeper scuffs, use a fine-grained sandpaper or wire brush.
• Touch-up paint – rub the spot with a fine steel wool. This will improve paint adhesion. Then wipe the spot clean, shake the touch-up paint can, apply thin coats, making sure you leave time to dry between coats. Be sure to follow the directions on your paint can.
• Oil – both aluminum garden furniture and metal tools can better stand a long winter if you first apply oil (motor oil works, but cooking oil is more environmentally friendly). Make sure that when spring rolls around you remember to wipe the oil off!
• More oil – periodically apply baby oil or mineral oil to aluminum garden furniture with a textured finish.
• Wax – keep your non-textured aluminum garden furniture glossed by applying a fine automotive wax. Apply it once or twice a year. Do not use wax on textured surfaces!
• Tubing – do not store your aluminum garden furniture upside down because moisture could accumulate in the tubing, and this moisture could freeze during the winter months, thereby causing damage to your aluminum garden furniture.

Know that by taking just a small amount of time and following the above tips (and/or the manufacturer’s instructions ), your aluminum garden furniture can maintain its beauty and last for many years to come.
