Cleaning outdoor concrete furniture involves a simple process using common household items to remove dirt and stains, ensuring its longevity and appearance.
Basic Cleaning Steps
To clean outdoor concrete furniture effectively, you can use a mild cleaning solution and gentle scrubbing.
Preparing the Cleaning Solution
Begin by creating your cleaning mixture.
- Mix liquid dishwashing detergent and water in a spray bottle or bucket for larger stains. This simple solution is effective for lifting general dirt and many common outdoor stains.
Scrubbing the Surface
Once your solution is ready, apply it to the furniture.
- Gently scrub the entire surface of the concrete furniture. Use a brush or sponge suitable for concrete that won't scratch the surface.
- Pay extra attention to any stains or spots. Apply more solution directly to soiled areas.
- For stubborn stains, you can let the cleaning solution sit on the surface for a few minutes before scrubbing. This allows the detergent to penetrate and loosen the grime before you scrub it away.
After scrubbing, rinse the furniture thoroughly with clean water to remove all soap residue. Allow the furniture to dry completely in the air.
