FAQs
We recommend starting with a rinse of lukewarm water to remove surface dirt. Then use a mixture of mild dish soap and water with a soft cloth or non‑abrasive brush to gently wash the furniture. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a microfiber towel to prevent water spots. For stubborn oxidation or chalking—especially in coastal areas—use a white vinegar solution or a paste made from baking soda and water, rubbed gently and rinsed off fully. A light coat of car wax with UV protection can also be applied occasionally for extra shine and protection.
No, aluminium naturally resists rust, making it a popular choice for outdoor furniture. However, it can oxidise or fade over time, particularly in harsh climates. Keeping the surface clean and occasionally applying a UV-protectant wax can help maintain its fresh appearance.
Aluminium can indeed feel warm under direct sunlight, especially if it's a darker finish. To enhance comfort, we recommend using Sunbrella cushions, light‑coloured seat covers, or strategically placing your lounge under shade structures or umbrellas.
Routine care is key: clean regularly with mild soap and water, spot‑treat oxidation promptly, and consider applying a UV‑protectant car wax after cleaning. In extreme weather or long periods of non‑use, using breathable furniture covers or storing lounges in a sheltered area will protect finishes and prolong their lifespan.
