Faux Stone Tabletops: These are made from non-porous materials and are easily cleaned with soap and water. On a regular basis, use a mild soap and soft rag to scrub the surface and rinse with clean water.

Natural Stone tabletops: Spills should be wiped up quickly to avoid any staining on the surface. Regular cleaning with mild soap and water with a sponge or soft scrub brush is all that is required.

Stone tabletops should be resealed every 6 to 12 months. Use a high quality granite and marble sealer.

Natural stone tops will fade in direct sunlight over time. This fading is a natural process and will be more noticeable on brightly colored stones and polished marble.

Stone tops may be re-polished professionally, and always require resealing after polishing. Storing your natural stone top(s) when not in use for extended periods of time is recommended.

Metal Frame Finish:

Iron Frame:  Do not let dirt build up on the metal frames. Cleaning with mild soap and water, and seasonal touch-up of any scratches, chips or occasional rust seepage from crevices or hidden, unfinished surfaces, inherent in some ornate designs, is all that is required. Touch-up pens or spray touch up in matching frame colors are available through Texas Patios. Never leave furniture standing in water. To keep your furniture looking its best, you may wish to store or cover your furniture when not in use for an extended period of time.

Aluminum Frame:  Periodically clean the finish with a sponge or soft bristle brush using a cleaning solution with 1/4 cup (2 oz.) mild liquid soap in a gallon of lukewarm water (100° F / 38° C) . Rinse thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive cleaners. For smooth finishes, we recommend periodic waxing of the frame with a high grade clear liquid wax or the use of a commercially available protectant to help maintain and/or restore the luster of the finish.  

Wicker:

Weather Wicker: This product requires minimal maintenance. Use a soft brush, duster, or vacuum to remove surface dirt. The furniture can be cleaned with a sponge using a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse thoroughly.

Cushions and Slings:

Woven Acrylic Cushions:  Prepare a cleaning solution with 1/4 cup (2 oz.) mild liquid soap in a gallon of lukewarm water (no warmer than 100° F / 38° C). Clean fabric with the solution using a sponge or soft bristle brush. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Allow to air dry, standing the cushion on its side to help it drain faster.

Mildew may form on dirt or other substances deposited upon the fabric. Regular cleaning of the furniture will help to prevent its forming. If mildew does develop, add 1 cup bleach to the cleaning solution. Apply to the affected area and allow to soak in. Scrub with a soft bristle brush, then rinse thoroughly. Repeat if necessary. For stubborn mildew stains, use a household mildew remover - test in an inconspicuous location first. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Note: Certain suntan and sun block products contain "PABA". PABA is harmful to fabric and can permanently discolor it; therefore, contact with cushions or slings should be avoided. If contact is made, cleaning the fabric immediately with a non-abrasive, mild soap and water solution followed by a fresh water rinse may minimize the possibility of discoloration. Laying a beach towel over the cushions or slings of outdoor furniture whenever you are using the furniture will prolong the fabric life. In addition, storing the cushions when not in use will extend cushion life.

Woven Vinyl and Acrylic Slings:   Using a sponge or cloth, wash with a solution of soap or mild detergent and warm water.  Rinse thoroughly with water and allow to air dry.

Umbrellas:

The umbrella should be closed and secured with its ties whenever it is not in use.  It is best to remove the top section of the pole (that holds the umbrella canopy), and lay it flat when not in use.  This is your best defense to prevent wind damage.
