Instructions
Cleaning Garden Furniture
Step 1
The first step is to clean the garden furniture to remove any dirt, grime, mold, and mildew from the surface. As you clean the garden furniture you’ll also notice the original honey color of the wood starting to be restored.
Step 2
Shake the bottle well before use.
Step 3
Mix the cleaner into a bucket of warm water at a ratio of 1:5 (1 part Teak Cleaner to 5 parts warm water). Dip a Scrubbing Brush into the mixture and scrub the surface to loosen and dirt and grime. Wipe the wood down using a clean, lint-free cloth.
Step 4
Rinse the wood with clean water to remove any excess Teak Cleaner. Allow to dry.
Step 5
Use the Abrasive Pad with the cleaning solution to get into hard to reach areas. You can also use the abrasive pad (or fine sandpaper; about 320p) to rub the surface down (after it has been cleaned and dried) if the furniture feels rough. This will create a lovely smooth surface and help with oil absorption later on.
Brightening Garden Furniture
Step 1
Brightening the furniture will further enhance the natural color of the wood and kill off any remaining mold spores that survived cleaning!
Step 2
Take the Teak Brightener and shake the bottle well before use. Put on the protective gloves.
Step 3
Mix the Teak Brightener into a bucket of water at a ratio of 1:1. Apply to a clean, lint-free cloth and rub into the garden furniture following the direction of the grain. Leave for a few minutes and then rinse down with clean water.
Step 4
As you apply the product you will notice more of the original garden furniture color reappearing in the wood.
Oiling Garden Furniture
Step 1
Take the Teak Oil and shake the bottle well before use. Ensure the garden furniture is clean and dry.
Step 2
Apply the Teak Oil liberally to a lint-free cloth and rub into the garden furniture following the direction of the grain. Leave for a few minutes and then wipe off any excess. Leave the Oil to thoroughly soak in and dry for between 4-6 hours.
Step 3
For best results and to help make future maintenance easier, you should apply three coats of oil to your garden furniture. Ensure the last has thoroughly dried before applying the next coat.
Maintenance
You should clean and reoil garden furniture once a year. You shouldn’t need to use the Brightener every time but you can choose to do so if you think the furniture has weathered badly, or if you don’t get round to applying the oil every year.
