Step by Step Tips to Clean Your Plastic Rattan Furniture from rattansetinshare's blog

Luckily, our Plastic Rattan Set are designed to require little to no maintenance and are incredibly quick and easy to wash. The materials we use on our rattan garden furniture sets are especially developed and chosen to ensure easy care and maintenance. PE rattan is a synthetic type of rattan which means that you don’t need to worry about it fading away or cracking when you wash it and the aluminium frame is also rust free.

Remove Dust

Use a microfiber or disposable duster or a vacuum cleaner with an upholstery brush to dust the entire surface of rattan furniture. This will prevent excessive soil build-up in the weaving.

Mix dishwashing liquid with a gallon of warm water

The amount I go with usually is ¼ cup of dishwashing liquid and a gallon of warm water. When water is warm, it is much more effective at cleaning than cold water. Make sure that you mix those two up by stirring them. It is best to use a bucket because you are probably going to move it around. One bucket should be more than enough to clean your entire bistro set or furniture set.

Dip your soft brush into the bucket and start cleaning

I have found some articles online that are suggesting that you use a toothbrush for this. Well, I have tried cleaning one chair with a toothbrush and the other with a much larger soft brush. Guess what? There was a big difference in the time that it took me to clean one single chair. But speaking of cleaning them, there was not so much difference. In fact, when I tried to do the process with a toothbrush the chair got dry before I could finish so it was left with spots on it.

My conclusion? Don’t be stupid enough to use a toothbrush. Having a much larger soft brush will make your process much shorter and your furniture a bit cleaner.

Rinse your rattan furniture again

There is nothing much to say here. Use your water hose and set it on spraying just like at the first step. Make sure that your table, chairs, etc. don’t get dry before you are finished with this step. If they get dry while there is still soap on them then you will end up with spots on your furniture. Again it is best to clean your rattan in the shades if it is sunny outside.

Leave to dry

Now it is time to let your furniture dry out in the sun. Some people use cloths to wipe it and make the process faster but I think that it is perfectly fine to just leave it out in the sun. While you are waiting for your rattan furniture to dry you can clean your cushions if you have any.

Keeping your outdoor rattan furniture clean, covering it in wet or windy weather, providing a surface protectant, and storing it indoors in winter are the best ways to weatherproof your furniture and extend its life in your outdoor landscape.
