The first way is following manufacturer’s instructions.   If you purchased your wood outdoor patio furniture new it should come with care and maintenance instructions.   If you have the information, it’s best to save and follow them. They will give you the best advice on properly maintaining your furniture.

Also, covering and storing the furniture during any    months that you don’t plan to use the patio furniture.   If you have room in your garage or shed then it would be the perfect place to store it.   Otherwise, you should place it under an overhang and or cover it with a cover that is made for use outdoors.

Leaving it in the sun and rain can ruin the wood unless you protect it.   This can be done by simply covering it.   You don’t always know when a storm is coming and you may not be home to protect your furniture.   Keeping your furniture protected and sealed can lessen the need to take such precautions.

Sealing the wood will give you better coverage for longer life.   So if the wood is sealed you won’t have to worry about rushing out in the rain to protect that beautiful garden bench you just purchased.   You should use a good wood protestant at the beginning of every season.   The type of furniture you have will help determine whether you need to use a stain, paint, preservative,oil or wax.  When you purchase the product you need to read the labels.   You want to be sure that whatever you are purchasing will work properly on the type of wood you are using it on.  Also,  make sure the product  is made for outdoor use; otherwise you won’t be properly protecting your furniture.
