for patio furniture requires no more than a little soapy water. A mild dishwashing soap or laundry
detergent is perfect for all patio pieces, from wicker furniture to even the most challenging metals
like wrought iron and cast iron furniture.
It’s also a fantastic way to scrub clean any outdoor cushions if your chairs come with those. For a
more intense clean of outdoor pillows, especially if you accidentally left them out in the rain, pop
them in the washing machine.
Fabric
Depending on the type of fabric, upholstered furniture may require varying levels of
maintenance and care. If you have leather furniture, keeping it clean will be fairly
simple. Here’s how you can take care of your leather upholstery:
 Vacuum regularly to get rid of dust
 Use a soft, clean cloth to wipe it down
 Treat it with leather conditioner once or twice a year
 Use a dry cloth to wipe all spills immediately
 Use cleaning products that are suitable for leather
All types of upholstery need proper maintenance if you want your furniture to last a
long time. One tip that goes for all fabrics is to keep the furniture away from
direct sunlight as much as possible to avoid damage and fading.
