How To Care For Teak Outdoor Furniture


 
Home Improvement,Recreation & Leisure,Consumer
Outdoor teak furniture is the most superior quality garden furniture possible. Teak garden furniture is also extremely simply to care for. Teakwood has unique qualities which make it unmatched for outdoor use. It requires just a small amount care to last decades.

Teak wood is one of the most costly woods because it is relatively rare. Despite this, we should think that outdoor teak furniture is a worthy investment based on its durability.

It is smart to clean up your teak outdoor furniture once in a while to undo any buildup of dust. You can employ a garden hose on a low pressure setting to rinse the dust off. Afterwards, using a soft brush, rub the surface delicately with a solution of warm water, detergent, and a couple tablespoons of bleach. Then rinse again with water. Wipe the surface dry using a towel finally.

Teak outdoor furniture that remains outside will naturally start to gradually alter color from the golden honey color of brand new wood to become a gray color. This process of teak furniture changing to gray is harmless and purely affects the outer appearance. The process does not reduce the stability of your teak patio furniture.

There are people like the golden honey shade of brand new teak and use teak oil as a way to keep this color. However, teak oil is not worth it because it must be retreated every three months from the time you start applying it. Oil could also raise the likelihood for mildew and black spots to form. A better idea is to treat with teak sealer yearly after a good cleaning of your teak patio furniture if you want to try to keep the golden tone.† You might choose to get a furniture cover for your teak furniture, in particular in the winter season or if your house is in a place that has a lot of dust. If you choose to use covers, be certain to find a furniture cover made made from a material that breathes. Do not use a plastic cover that is bound to collect moisture. This increases the possibility of mildew growing on the surface of the wood.

Dark stains like red wine can get taken care of with using sandpaper on the outer layer of your teak garden. Begin by using a medium paper and after that finish off with a fine grade paper to make the surface of the teak nice and smooth. Sanding like this is also a way of bringing out the honey glow of teak wood since you expose a fresh level of wood that is permeated with oil from the wood.

As you can see, your teak outdoor furniture can last many years with very little maintenance for you to do. Since it will last for so long, teakwood is preferred to other types of hardwood. You should know that any teak dining set you purchase now will be enjoyed by your family in the future.
