My weathered furniture has green stains. What is the best way to clean it?
Outdoor furniture made of teak will last for years without any attention, however, sap, pollen, chemicals or contaminents in the air, can affect its appearance. We haven’t yet found a “specialized teak cleaner” on the market that we find acceptable for our customers, so we recommend a yearly cleaning with Olympic® Deck Cleaner. Simply apply with a pump garden sprayer, let it sit for five minutes and rinse off with a garden hose. It’s that easy. In a few areas, where water contains a lot of iron or other chemicals you may need to add up to 50% common household bleach to the deck cleaner. Try it first without the bleach. Stubborn stains may need a second application or scrubbed with a nylon bristle brush. For a longer lasting solution or to delay the onset of grey, considering using our Semco products.
