How to re-stain:
Choose a place in the shade for cleaning, re-
staining and leaving the furniture to dry. Avoid
direct sunlight.
1. Wipe clean with a soft cloth dampened in water
and a mild soapy solution, if necessary. Wipe
dry with a clean and dry cloth.
Use a soft brush to remove tougher stains. If
necessary, sand the surface with ne grade
sandpaper. Be sure to sand it in the direction of
the grain. Do not use steel wool or a brush with
metal bristles – pieces of metal may become
embedded in the wood and rust. If wood bres
rise after cleaning, sand the surface with ne
grade sandpaper.
2. Shake the container well and apply a thin, even
coat of stain to the furniture using a brush or
sponge. Apply on the entire surface at once and
in the direction of the grain.
3. Water-based stain dries quickly so be sure to
wipe o any excess with a dry cloth directly
after application.
Wash brushes and your hands with soap and water.
Storing:
Before storing away your furniture for the season,
clean it well and let it dry thoroughly. If possible,
store your outdoor furniture in a cool and dry place
indoors. If stored outside, put the furniture under a
roof if possible and cover it with a protective cover.
If the furniture is left exposed to rain or snow, make
sure to protect it with a waterproof cover and if
possible tilt the furniture to make it easier for any
water to drain away. After a rain or snowfall, wipe
o excess water or snow – especially from at
surfaces. Allow air to ventilate, to avoid moisture
and mould.
NOTE!
To increase the stability of your furniture, re-tighten
the screws at least once per season.
