Maintenance method of rattan furniture and accessories

After using it for a period of time, rattan furniture will become dirty and accumulate dust, and may even be damaged, and need to be cleaned and maintained immediately.

Vinegar furniture can absorb a certain amount of moisture, but if excessive moisture is absorbed, it will become soft, loose in structure and sagging in plane. The advantage of rattan furniture is that after drying, it returns to its original shape and size. Therefore, it is important that when the rattan furniture is damp, its woven shape and its gaps cannot be deformed, because when it is dry, the rattan will shrink to its original size.

Cleaning vine furniture is not a complicated matter, vegetable oil and soap are the best detergents. We can also use trisodium phosphate as a cleaner. Some tools at hand, such as wicker and toothbrush, or paint brushes, can cut the hard bristles of the paint brush in half to make a small brush. The latter two are like a nail brush, while the former is like a pencil-sized pin that can be sharpened in the pen sharpener. Use them to remove the dirty embedded in the furniture.

Ivy is often painted or dyed. If it is dirty, it requires regular cleaning, but if the cleaning still cannot make it look new, you can use a method called "stripping" or brushing a thin paint, which can usually remove stains.

However, if the furniture is not painted, there is no need to "scrub the surface". Scrape off the local stains and apply paint, or simply apply paint all over. When you want to shovel the stain, dip it in good oily pigment and then apply paint. It is best to repaint after cleaning.

For rolled and damaged paint, the “ rubbed surface ” method can be used. The tools used are as described above. Sometimes liquid scrubbers are also needed, so the scrubbing time is long enough, so you need to use a brush to rub it on it, but you cannot scrape it on the surface like a wooden furniture. It should be tilted and the tightly woven parts are above, so that the remaining liquid will flow to the looser parts and will not accumulate on the tighter parts.

After the rattan furniture is dry, the next step is to paint it again. It is best to use spraying method to paint, so that all corners and depressions can be applied, and then spray paint after dyeing. Be careful to prevent the polyurethane from curing into a plastic surface, which is hard and brittle and may cause cracks to all bent areas.

【1】Do not let it contact and approach fire or heat sources when used and stored, and do not put it in the sun for a long time to expose it to the sun, otherwise it will easily fade, dry, deform, bend, crack, loosen and disconnect.

【2】Because there are many places where dust is hidden on the surface of rattan furniture, you can use a vacuum cleaner to suck it once or use a soft brush to brush off the floating dust from the inside to the outside, then wipe it with a wet rag, and finally wipe it dry with a soft rag.

【3】After using a period of use, wipe the rattan device with light salt water, which can not only remove dirt and make it flexible and lasting, but also has a certain anti-brittle and anti-worm-damaging effect.

【4】Renovation method for primary color rattan furniture: first clean and dry, then polish the outer rattan rack with sandpaper to remove stains and restore smoothness, and then apply varnish to protect.
