Whether you can use a power washer on urban outdoor furniture depends primarily on the material. For durable materials like cast aluminum, wrought iron, and concrete, a power washer on a low-pressure setting with a wide fan tip can be effective. Always maintain a safe distance of at least 12-18 inches to prevent etching or paint damage. However, for softer woods (like pine), most plastics, and all wicker or rattan furniture, avoid power washing entirely. The high-pressure stream can splinter wood, crack plastic, and destroy woven fibers. For these materials, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush instead. Always check for loose joints or damage before starting, and never use a concentrated stream or a turbo nozzle on any furniture. When used correctly on appropriate materials, a power washer can quickly remove grime and mildew. When in doubt, opt for gentler cleaning methods to preserve your furniture's longevity and finish.
