The sun beats up our patio furniture hour upon hour, day after day, year after year. The sun really is relentless. That is why you need to take action. While most people forget about their patio benches focusing on chairs and even tables you should be different.
UV light from the sun's rays not only fades fabrics but woods and other materials too, eventually destroying them. Over time the fibers literally break down and fall apart. You must protect your patio furniture if you want to get your monies worth from them.
Many people love the dull grey look of wood after being in the sun for a long period of time. This aged look does not work for everyone. Many like the freshly stained look and color of treated wood.
There are products specifically formulated to protect wood and other materials from UV damage, fading and also to make them stain and soil resistant. These products can also be used in concert with stain fighting products and water proofing products. Together this team will not only fight the sun’s rays and its damaging effects but also extreme wet weather, dirt and grime.
I would like to tell you that there was more to it but really there is not. Pick a product, spray or wipe it on and let it dry. All you have to do is read the label or instructions that came with your patio furniture in this case your patio tables. Then read the label of the UV light protector product. Don’t feel comfortable selecting one on your own? Ask a store employee for some help. Get their recommendation. Ask a friend who has a similar patio bench. Be sure to tell them your price range first. Purchase a product that will work with your materials. Spray it on and let it dry completely before using the patio tables.
Now it is time to enjoy your patio furniture knowing that they will last and give you your full monies worth.
