The Natural Beauty Of Oak Garden Furniture
When you purchase oak garden furniture it is advisable to select furniture made out of white oak. This specific type of wood has a higher durability than most other wood on the market, which makes it ideal when exposed to most weather conditions.
Oak is a very strong hardwood, but needs to be properly treated and maintained in order to preserve and prolong the lifespan of the wood. If you intend using it outside, it should be protected with a penetrating stain that has a preservative and an ingredient that will slow down any mildew growth.
Apply oil that has been recommended by the manufacturer to keep your oak in excellent condition. Soaking the bottom two to three inches of the table and chair legs in a wood preservative will add years to the lifespan of your furniture especially if you use it on grass.
Dirt that accumulates on the surface of your table and chairs can be removed with soapy water and a sponge. It is advisable to immediately clean up any food or liquid spills if they occur, to prevent any stains to the wood and to keep the furniture in good condition.
White and red oak are commonly used in garden furniture, the light brown shade of wood being the white oak. Some furniture is manufactured using quarter sawed wood, which, because of the different cut, gives a lovely variation in visual richness and colour.
Stains on the wood can generally be removed using mineral spirits and a cloth, depending on the damage. If your oak has been burnt, chipped or marked, it is always best to have it professionally restored by a furniture expert.
To preserve your furniture and prevent any possible stains caused by food or liquid spills, it is advisable to cover the surface of your table with a table cloth.
Garden furniture covers that fully cover your oak garden furniture when it is not being used will prevent most weather deterioration and help keep the wood in pristine condition.
