Cleaning Outdoor Furniture Guide

Freshen up your outdoor furniture ready for entertaining

Before BBQ season begins, you’ll want to clean up your dusty outdoor furniture. Regularly cleaning your outdoor furniture will give you years of comfort and good looks.

Start with making a mixture of warm water and your choice of liquid cleaners (e.g. automotive detergent, dishwashing liquid or all-purpose cleaner) in a general purpose bucket. You can add small amount of bleach to cleaner mixture for white plastic furniture.  The Sabco Xl Flo-Thu Wash Brush is highly recommended for this job because of its simple snap on hose connector, and adjustable water pressure nozzle. Dip the Sabco XL Flo-Thu Wash Brush into the bucket of soapy water as required and scrub.

Leave covered in soap for a few minutes, and rinse well with the Sabco Xl Flo-Thu Wash Brush whilst it is connected to garden hose.

Dry furniture with a Sabco All-Purpose Microfibre cloth for a perfect finish. The same process can be used for aluminium and wooden furniture too, as the Sabco Xl Flo-Thu Wash Brush is made of a super soft flagged bristles for scratch-free cleaning.

Tip 1: For wooden furniture, especially timber furniture, remember to place in the sun to allow it to completely dry. You can use a good quality oil to refinish your timber three to four times a year, depending on how much sun exposure it gets.

Tip 2: Another handy tool for large outdoor clean ups is The Sabco Car Wash Brush. With an extendable handle to 1.5 metres, you can easily use it to clean and wash weatherboards, windows, boats, kid’s playground equipment, cubby houses and more! The Sabco Car Wash Brush also has soft non-scratch bristles and water-fed handle making it easy to swap from wash-to-rinse while cleaning.
