Care and Maintenance
Use the following methods to keep your Built to Last® furniture looking new.
Normal Cleaning Instructions:
- • Use warm, soapy water
- • Wash furniture down with a clean cloth to remove dirt
- • Rinse thoroughly
- • For additional cleaning power, add 1/3-part bleach to the mixture
- • Apply mixture to furniture and allow to sit on furniture for a few minutes
- • Use a soft bristle brush to remove dirt in surface grooves
- • Rinse thoroughly
Pressure Washing Instructions:
- • Use the wide spray nozzle (not to exceed 1,500 psi)
- • Keep nozzle at least two to three (2 to 3) feet away from the furniture
- • Spray off furniture, then follow normal cleaning instruction

Note: Customers living in coastal areas, where salt build-up is a concern, should rinse their furniture off on a monthly basis to remove salt build-up. This will also reduce the likelihood of tarnish and rust setting in and damaging the stainless-steel hardware.
