2 Garden furniture – Have you checked yours recently? Does the wood look grey and tired? Are your plastic chairs looking as if they need a good clean? Whatever your situation now is a good time, before you put your feet up and relax for the rest of the summer, to give the garden furniture a good clean. Treat wooden chairs and tables with teak oil or similar and use a good household cleaner to remove dirt and stains from plastics. If you have metal garden furniture treatments will be specified in the documents provided when new. But anti-rust treatments may be necessary as well as a decorative coat of outdoor quality paint. Check all nuts and bolts and other securing devices so that the chairs and tables do not collapse on you just as you sit down for that well-earned cup of afternoon tea!! Read
