Cleaning outdoor furniture with olive oil spray is an eco-friendly and effective way to maintain its beauty and longevity. Here’s a simple guide to get the job done:
1. Prepare the Furniture: Start by removing dirt and debris with a soft brush or cloth. For stubborn grime, use mild soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Let it dry completely.
2. Apply Olive Oil Spray: Mix equal parts olive oil and white vinegar in a spray bottle. Shake well and lightly mist the furniture surface. Avoid oversaturating to prevent greasy residue.
3. Buff for Shine: Use a microfiber cloth to gently buff the oil into the furniture. This enhances the wood or metal’s natural luster while providing a protective layer.
4. Repeat as Needed: For heavily weathered furniture, repeat the process every few months to maintain moisture resistance and prevent cracking.
This natural method not only cleans but also nourishes outdoor furniture, making it a sustainable alternative to chemical cleaners.
