Key Considerations When Choosing Oil for Garden Furniture A. Water and UV Protection The easiest way to preserve the look of new wooden garden furniture sets is to use a proper wood garden furniture cleaner. These specially formulated wood cleaners will help to keep wooden garden and patio furniture clean, whilst retaining the the original oiled or stained finish. Household detergents including washing-up liquids should never be used to wipe down or clean oiled wooden furniture. These products often contain harsh detergents, cleaning chemicals or abrasives that will degrade and possibly strip the finish from the wood, leaving it exposed and vulnerable to weathering and biological threats such as mould, mildew and algae. Always use a dedicated garden furniture cleaner that is pH balanced and specifically formulated for use on wooden garden furniture. Recommended Garden Furniture Cleaners

If there is any metal on your rattan furniture, you will have to pay special attention to these bits to ensure that they don't go rusty and are treated properly.’ The OLI-Natura Yacht and Teak Oil is the best choice for furniture that are exposed to extreme elements. If your garden furniture sits outside completely exposed rather than being under a shade or porch, the OLI-Natura provides the best protection against moisture and UV. Allow at least 30 minutes before applying a second coat. Apply using the same strokes. Let it dry for approximately 15 minutes and wipe the surface using a piece of cloth. Leave it for about 10 hours.
