URBAN OUTDOOR FURNITURE

Protecting your wooden urban outdoor furniture floor requires a proactive approach to prevent scratches and unsightly water rings. Start by using protective pads or felt pads on the bottom of all furniture legs. This creates a soft barrier that prevents scratches when chairs or tables are moved. For water rings, caused by condensation from cold drinks or plant pots, the simplest solution is to use coasters, trays, or placemats under all items. Applying a high-quality outdoor sealant or polyurethane finish to the wood creates a durable, waterproof barrier. Reapply this sealant annually, as exposure to sun and rain will degrade it over time. Regularly clean the surface with a soft brush and a mild, wood-safe cleaner to remove abrasive dirt and debris. For existing minor scratches, a touch-up pen or wood stain that matches your floor's finish can work wonders. For water rings, lightly sanding the area and reapplying the sealant may be necessary. By incorporating these simple habits and maintenance routines, you can significantly extend the life and beauty of your outdoor wooden floor.
