Basic Cleaning for Your Rattan Furniture
Regular cleaning of your white rattan furniture is important to maintain its beauty and durability. To
clean your rattan furniture, you can use a soft, dry cloth or a clean sponge to remove dust and dirt. You can also use a toothbrush to clean hard-to-reach areas.
Removing Stains from Your Rattan Furniture
If your rattan furniture has stubborn stains, you can use a baking soda solution. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda with 1 tablespoon of water to form a paste. Apply the paste to the affected area with a soft cloth and leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes. Then, rinse the area with a clean cloth and let it air dry.
Avoiding Common Mistakes When Cleaning Rattan Furniture
When cleaning your rattan furniture, it's important to avoid certain common mistakes. First, do not use pure turpentine to clean your rattan furniture. Turpentine can damage rattan and cause discoloration. It is important to mix turpentine with linseed oil or water to obtain a safe solution.
In addition, do not leave your rattan furniture in an overly humid environment. Rattan is a natural material that can absorb water and deform if left too long in a humid environment, for example, in the rain or on a watered lawn. Also, avoid using harsh cleaning products that can damage the surface of your rattan furniture.
On the other hand, rattan is not afraid of sun or heat. It is a very UV-resistant material, it patinates but does not fade, it does not heat up, you can sit on it without fear of getting burned.
