How to Clean Recycled Plastic Furniture

October 9, 2024

At Peterborough Landscape Supply, we’re proud to offer CR Plastic furniture, crafted from recycled materials that are not only eco-friendly but also built to last. To keep your outdoor space looking pristine, proper care is essential. Here’s a simple guide to cleaning your CR Plastic furniture:

  1. Start with a Vacuum: Quickly remove any loose dirt and debris using a dry vacuum to make the cleaning process easier.
  2. Prepare Your Cleaning Solution: In a bucket, mix warm water with a few drops of dish soap. For an extra boost of cleanliness, consider adding a small amount of bleach—about one part bleach to two parts water.
  3. Apply the Solution: Use a washcloth to apply the soapy mixture to the surfaces of your furniture. Let it sit for a few minutes to penetrate any stubborn grime.
  4. Scrub Away: Take a soft-bristle brush and gently scrub the surfaces to loosen any remaining dirt or debris.
  5. Rinse and Dry: Finally, rinse your furniture with clean water and allow it to air dry.

What to Avoid

To keep your CR Plastic furniture in top shape, steer clear of using pressure washers. When the nozzle is placed too close to the plastic, it can chew or fray the material, leaving a fuzzy appearance. This not only affects the look of your furniture but also allows dirt and particles to settle into the plastic, making it difficult to restore its original beauty over time.

With these easy steps and precautions, you can keep your CR Plastic furniture looking as good as new while enjoying the peace of mind that comes from using sustainable products. Happy cleaning!
