Storax resin smoke can leave stubborn stains and odors on outdoor furniture, making it look aged and unkempt. To prevent this, follow these practical steps:

1. Use Protective Covers – Invest in high-quality, waterproof furniture covers to shield your outdoor pieces from resin smoke and other environmental pollutants.

2. Apply a Protective Sealant – Coat your furniture with a UV-resistant sealant or wax to create a barrier against resin deposits. Reapply every few months for best results.

3. Regular Cleaning – Wipe down furniture surfaces frequently with a mild soap solution to remove resin particles before they adhere permanently.

4. Relocate Furniture Temporarily – If storax trees are nearby, move furniture to a sheltered area during peak resin-smoke seasons.

5. Opt for Resistant Materials – Choose metal, synthetic wicker, or treated wood furniture, which are less prone to resin absorption.

By taking these precautions, you can extend the lifespan of your outdoor furniture and maintain its aesthetic appeal.
