Corrosion and Muck: Your Guide To Patio Furniture Servicing

By Cyrus Newhampton


Want sturdy and durable patio furniture? Think metal. No matter how many miles you put it through metal garden furniture will last a very long time.

The 1 anxiety with any furniture created from metal, especially fixtures kept out side, is the dreaded red death...RUST! Most modern day patio furniture sold is previously pretreated to face the elements so you shouldn't truly have a challenge should you get or own outdoor furniture or seats made of metal as they will probably previously be powder coated.

Your greatest choice if you do find rust is to sand down the issue location and to touch it up with anti-rust paint. That is if you purchased cast iron patio and garden furniture many years ago and you're seeing rust or are fearful about the idea of identifying it then keep an eye out for rust. If you do find rust sand down the trouble area with sand paper. If you don't have any use a wire brush. Use the rust free type of paint, the one engineered for metal furniture, when painting your metal garden furniture.

Oxidation is fairly tough to get rid of so avoidance is usually better than a cure. Saying that you CAN battle rust. Remember that if you get a scuff in your furniture that bests the protective paint then you'll need to touch this up too just to make sure you do not get a 'rust infection.'

Bear in mind however that you really shouldn't have a problem with rust. In particular if your furniture came pretreated or you've remedied it yourself. This procedure will only need to be undertaken once every five years or so.
