Aluminum Furniture: Care & Maintenance Guide

Keeping your aluminum outdoor furniture clean and protected ensures years of enjoyment and style. Follow these steps to maintain its look and performance:

1. Clean Your Furniture Regularly

Wash frames with a mild soap and water solution. An automotive-type wash that’s safe for clear coat finishes is preferred.

2. Address Blemishes in the Finish

Inspect frames bi-annually for scratches or chips. Use touch-up paint (available through Casual Furniture World) to prevent further damage. Wax frames twice a year with a wash wax to protect against the elements.

3. Protect Your Furniture

Cover furniture with breathable covers that allow air to circulate. Frames include nylon glides at the base of each leg—check and replace these twice a year to protect your floors and the frame itself.

4. Prevent Freeze Damage

Never leave frames in standing water or store them submerged. Always store furniture upright to allow moisture to drain and prevent freeze-related cracks.

💡 Pro Tip: For coastal areas, avoid placing aluminum furniture directly on concrete. Using an outdoor rug can reduce oxidation (which is often not covered by warranty).
