Folding Baja Ii Lounge 63Hx34w Aquamarine

Crafted from durable, Earth-friendly eucalyptus hardwood, this furniture is intended for outdoor use in all weather. A finelooking hardwood comparable to teak and with magnificent weather-resistant properties, eucalyptus is dense and naturally immune to rot and insect infestation. Certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), there is no doubt with regards to the responsible production and consumption of this wood. The rapid growth of eucalyptus trees makes them more readily available and more effortlessly affordable. In addition, furniture constructed of eucalyptus is light sufficient to move effortlessly and requires no oiling unless to maintain a desired look.

Left untreated, eucalyptus will weather when exposed to the elements, turning a soft shade of silver/gray similar to the weathering of teak. In addition, when untreated, natural splitting or cracks will appear, but this will not affect the durability of the furniture. To guard versus this weathering procedure and to maintain a desired look, apply coats of a hardwood oil. The frequency of necessary oil apps depends on the intensity of the outdoor elements. The furniture has already been oiled prior to packing, and it is commended that an oil treatment be repeated at least once a year. Giving the furniture an extra treatment before exposing to rain will prolong the “new” look and make sure a longer life.

After eucalyptus furniture has weathered, it may be restored if desired by sanding down the surface, cleaning it, and then applying oil to prevent more weathering. To clean it, mix one tablespoon of bleach, five tablespoons of a tame dishwashing liquid, and a gallon of water, and gently scrub the mixture on the surface of the wood with a soft bristle brush. Rinse the solution from the furniture, and grant it to arid altogether in the sun. Developed for use in high humidity, the furniture is best not stored in centrally heated areas, as that could lead to exuberant drying out of the wood.

Wood that becomes completely filled with water and left over an extended amount of time without drying out is more likely to warp and rot. The bases of furniture legs are in all likelihood the most vulnerable when it comes to water damage. If wood furniture is kept in the grass, at the poolside, or on a surface that collects rain water, the legs may become saturated. Covering the bottoms of each leg with rubberized material or little sectionalizations of cedar fencing material will help protect furniture from rotting from the bottom up.
