Beach chair care - so you maintain your beach chair
Beach chairs are no longer found only on the Baltic and North Sea coast. The decorative garden furniture has also found its way into the local gardens. You need to take good care of it so that you enjoy your beach chair for a long time and avoid repairs. Tips for caring for beach chairs.
What care does the beach chair need?
The framework of the beach chair is usually made of wood. Due to rain and sun, the wood is heavily attacked. As a result, there is a risk that it will become brittle and tear under load. The color fades through the sun.
Therefore, the main care of the beach chair is the impregnation of the frame. There are corresponding funds in the trade. You should use them regularly according to the instructions on the packaging.
Cover beach chair when wet
Even though an impregnated beach chair will cope well with moisture, you can significantly increase its durability by covering it with a protective tarpaulin. If you are sure that you will not be using the beach chair for a long time, you should always coat it - but only if the basket is completely dry. Otherwise, mold may form.
Beach chair overwinter properly
If you have no space in the garage or basement to overwinter the beach chair, put it in a sheltered corner in the garden and protect it with a cover. Beforehand, you should brush off dirt particles.
So that the beach chair does not get wet from below, place it on wooden planks, a pallet or bricks.
On dry days you should remove the cover for some time, so that the beach chair ventilates and later does not smell unpleasant.
Clean cushions and covers
Make sure when buying that the fabrics used for the pillows and covers are impregnated. Small spots can then be washed out with a little water and soapy water. Incidentally, substances can also be impregnated later.
It is also beneficial if the cushion covers are provided with zipper. This makes them easy to peel off and wash in the washing machine at low temperatures.
Tips
A beach chair can be integrated into almost every garden. Wooden beach chairs are the perfect match for any style, with cushions and covers in muted colors.
