How do I clean my Polywood Low Chair?

Caring for your Low Chair is easy, ensuring it remains beautiful and durable through all seasons. Polywood is a high-quality, recycled plastic material designed to replicate the look of wood without the maintenance wood typically requires. Here’s how you can keep your Polywood furnishings looking their best:

Routine Cleaning:

Simple Cleaning: For regular maintenance, a soft cloth or sponge with warm, soapy water is all you need to remove dirt and grime. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.

Hose Down: For a quick refresh, you can simply hose down your Polywood furniture. This method is effective for removing loose dirt and debris.

Dealing with Stains and Deep Cleaning:

Stains and Heavy Dirt: For more stubborn stains or heavy dirt accumulation, a solution of one-third bleach and two-thirds water can be used safely on Polywood. Apply the solution with a soft brush, allowing it to sit for a few minutes before scrubbing gently. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry.

Power Washing: Polywood can withstand power washing at a low setting (not exceeding 1,500 psi), which can be effective for deep cleaning. Be sure to hold the nozzle at a distance to avoid damaging the surface.

Preventing and Removing Mold and Mildew:

Mold and Mildew: While Polywood is resistant to mold and mildew, these can grow on dirt and other organic material left on the furniture. Clean regularly to prevent buildup and use the bleach solution method for any mold or mildew stains.

Additional Care Tips:

Avoid Harsh Chemicals: While Polywood is durable, harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners should be avoided to prevent surface damage.

Protect from Extreme Heat: Although Polywood is designed to withstand the elements, it's best to avoid placing hot items directly on the surface, as extreme heat can cause damage.

Use Protective Covers: While not necessary for protection against weather, covers can help keep your Polywood furniture clean and ready for use, especially during extended periods of non-use.

By following these simple care and maintenance steps, your Polywood furniture will continue to look great and provide comfortable, stylish outdoor seating and dining options for many years. Enjoy the beauty of wood without the upkeep with Polywood.
