Stain-proof your patio cushions

So the big bbq or outdoor party is coming up soon. You got the menu all ready and the bbq sauce is marinating the meats as we speak... (well read). The drinks are all your favorite colors, red cool-aid, purple soda, orange tang and some yellow lemonade. You got the patio furniture all cleaned up and ready to go. Have you stain-proofed the patio furniture cushions?

While stains give character and let you tell stories later on, no one wants them. Who wants to explain to everyone who sits on a certain chair, “Oh yeah that stain happened when uncle John spilled his plate when he tripped over the dog.” Stain proofing your outdoor furniture cushions helps keep them clean and new looking. It also helps you get more wear and tear out of your cushions.

Everyone is concerned about their finances. Why buy new patio furniture cushions when you could keep your current ones looking new and fabulous? Patio furniture cushions can be made from a wide variety of materials. Read your patio furniture cushions labels before choosing a stain proofing product. While it is not usually a necessary step, it will add extra protection. Stain proofing fabrics used for outdoor cushions and pads can also help to prolong the life of the stuffing inside.

Some products are even specially formulated to stain proof outdoor fabrics. By reading the labels you can purchase the right one to fit your needs at the right price for your budget. If you are worried about trying it out on your patio furniture cushions then try it out on a small section of an older cushion. If you like what it does and it lives up to its claims them keep using it. Ask for recommendations from employees at the store you purchase the stain protector from. This can help you greatly as well.

By taking the time to select the right product you will ensure that your patio furniture cushions will be kept new and comfortable for a long time.
