Accidents happen, and banana cream pie stains on outdoor furniture can be a sticky mess. But don’t worry—here’s how to tackle them effectively with simple household solutions.

1. Act Quickly

The sooner you address the stain, the easier it will be to remove. Use a dull knife or spoon to scrape off excess pie filling without rubbing it deeper into the fabric or surface.

2. Mild Soap and Water

Mix warm water with a few drops of dish soap. Dip a soft cloth or sponge into the solution, gently blot the stain (don’t scrub), and rinse with clean water. Repeat if necessary.

3. Baking Soda Paste

For stubborn stains, make a paste of baking soda and water. Apply it to the stain, let it sit for 10-15 minutes, then wipe away with a damp cloth. This works well for both fabric and plastic furniture.

4. Vinegar Solution

Mix equal parts white vinegar and water. Spray or dab it onto the stain, wait 5 minutes, then blot with a clean cloth. Vinegar helps break down oils and sugars in the pie filling.

5. Enzyme Cleaner for Fabric

If the stain persists on cushions or upholstery, use an enzyme-based cleaner designed for organic stains. Follow the product instructions for best results.

Prevention Tip

To avoid future stains, consider using washable outdoor furniture covers or treating fabrics with a stain-resistant spray.

With these methods, your outdoor furniture will look good as new in no time!
