Spilling wine on your outdoor furniture can be frustrating, but don’t worry—there are simple ways to tackle those stubborn stains. Here’s a step-by-step guide to restoring your furniture’s appearance:
1. Blot Immediately: Use a clean cloth to absorb as much wine as possible. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain.
2. Dish Soap Solution: Mix warm water with a few drops of dish soap. Gently dab the stain with a sponge, then rinse with cold water.
3. Baking Soda Paste: For tougher stains, make a paste of baking soda and water. Apply it to the stain, let it sit for 15 minutes, then scrub lightly and rinse.
4. Vinegar & Water Mix: Combine equal parts white vinegar and water. Spray or dab the solution onto the stain, then wipe clean after 10 minutes.
5. Hydrogen Peroxide (for Light Fabrics): Test on a hidden spot first. Apply a small amount, let it bubble for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
For metal or plastic furniture, a mild bleach solution (1:10 bleach to water) can help, but always test in an inconspicuous area.
Prevention Tip: Treat outdoor fabrics with a stain-resistant spray to make future cleanups easier.
With these methods, your outdoor furniture will look as good as new in no time!
