Aluminum furniture is known for its durability and low maintenance requirements, making it a popular choice for outdoor settings. To keep your aluminum furniture looking its best:

• Regular Cleaning: Wash all dust and dirt off frames with soap and water. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove any dirt that does not come off by spraying the frames with water. Regular dish soap (e.g., Dawn) will suffice. Be sure to rinse away any remaining soap residue. Avoid using any chemical products unless confirmed by the manufacturer as suitable for outdoor furniture.
• Stain Removal: Acidic liquids such as bird droppings should be cleaned quickly to avoid leaving permanent stains.
• Powder Coated Finish: To extend the lifespan of the powder-coated paint finish, Protégé recommends using a Clear Coat Matte Finish spray. Apply the spray evenly ONE TIME per year (in the spring) and allow it to dry before putting the furniture outside.
• Drying: After cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to polish the surface if needed. Ensure that the furniture is thoroughly dried to prevent water spots and streaks.
• Winter Covering: Covering your patio furniture when it’s not in use is recommended to prolong its life and maintain its appearance. While modern patio furniture is designed to withstand various weather conditions, covering it provides extra protection, especially in harsh winters. We suggest covering your furniture or storing it in an enclosed shed or garage. Cushions should be covered or stored away from moisture to prevent mildew. Additionally, using a soft blanket under the cover can help absorb moisture and protect the powder coating on table tops. This approach will help preserve the finish and ensure your furniture looks great when you use it again in spring.

Proper care and maintenance, along with appropriate winter covering, will help preserve the sleek look of your aluminum furniture and ensure it remains a stylish and functional part of your outdoor space for years to come.

• Durability & Maintenance: Wicker furniture is a stylish and versatile option for outdoor spaces. With proper care, it can remain durable and attractive throughout the year.
• Regular Cleaning: Wash all dust and dirt off the frames with soap and water. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove any dirt that doesn’t come off by spraying the frames with water. Make sure to rinse thoroughly, removing all soap residue. Avoid using chemical products, as they can damage the wicker fibers.
• Stain Removal: Clean up spills and bird droppings promptly to prevent stains. A soft cloth and a mild soap solution work well, but never use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers, as they can harm the woven material.
• Sun Protection & Cushion Use: Wicker products can be left outdoors all year round, but we highly recommend covering them when not in use, especially during the winter months. Excess sun exposure may cause fading over time. Additionally, always use wicker products with the required cushions. Direct pressure on the woven wicker without cushions can cause it to loosen or unravel.
• Winter Covering: While outdoor wicker is designed to withstand various elements, it’s best to cover or store it during harsh weather conditions. PC Outdoors offers Vinyl Waterproof covers tailored to fit your specific wicker pieces for optimal protection. Storing the furniture in a shed or garage during winter will help further prolong its life.
• Protege Casual Warranty: Protege Casual provides a 3-year limited warranty on wicker frames. Damage such as dents, scratches, marks, and tears to fabrics or fibers that occur during normal use are not covered by this warranty.

Sintered stone tabletops are the ultimate choice for outdoor use due to their exceptional durability, UV resistance, weatherproof properties, and effortless maintenance.

Regular Cleaning:

• Wipe with a soft cloth or sponge using warm water and a mild detergent.
• Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a microfiber cloth to prevent streaks.
• Avoid abrasive pads or steel wool, as they may dull the surface over time.

Stain & Spill Removal:

• For everyday spills like coffee, wine, or oil, clean immediately with a pH-neutral cleaner.
• For tougher stains, use a mixture of warm water and mild dish soap or diluted vinegar.
• If needed, use a non-abrasive household cleaner such as acetone or rubbing alcohol for stubborn marks.

Heat & Scratch Protection:

• Sintered stone is highly resistant to heat, but using trivets or hot pads under extremely hot objects is recommended.
• Always use a cutting board instead of cutting directly on the surface to prevent micro-scratches.
• Do not drag heavy objects across the surface to avoid scratching.
• Avoid impact from sharp or heavy items, as extreme force can cause chipping.
• Use felt pads or rubber bumpers under accessories to prevent surface marks.

Weather & UV Resistance:

• Sintered stone is UV-resistant and will not fade or discolor under the sun.
• It withstands extreme weather conditions, including rain, snow, and frost.

Winter Storage & Protection:

• While sintered stone is weatherproof, covering it during winter will help prevent dirt buildup and maintain its appearance.
• If storing for the season, clean the surface thoroughly and use a breathable cover to protect it from dust and debris.

Protege Warranty:

It is recommended to cover your furniture when not in use to help preserve its color and extend its lifespan. Sling furniture can be left outdoors year-round, but covering or storing it in an enclosed space, like a shed or garage, during winter is highly recommended.
• Fabric Tension: Do not overload the sling material with excess pressure, as it may cause stretching or sagging. The sling can withstand 250 lbs. Always use the furniture as intended to maintain the fabric’s tautness.

While Marine Grade rope is made to endure harsh conditions, covering the furniture during winter will extend its lifespan.
• Avoiding Overloading: While the rope is highly durable, avoid placing excessive weight or pressure on it to prevent unnecessary stretching or fraying. Using the furniture as intended will help maintain the structural integrity of the rope.
• Winter Covering: PC Outdoors offers Vinyl Waterproof covers that are tailored to fit your Marine Grade rope furniture for added protection during the off-season.
• Warranty: Protege Casual offers a 3-year limited warranty on Marine Grade rope components. The warranty covers structural failures but excludes damage such as fraying, cuts, or stretching due to normal use or improper care.

• Regular Cleaning: To maintain the look and performance of your fire pit, clean it regularly. After use, ensure the fire pit is cool before cleaning. Wipe down the exterior with a non-abrasive cloth, water, and mild soap (e.g., Dawn). Rinse off any soap residue with clean water and let it dry.
• Burner Maintenance: Keep the burner free from dirt and debris. Use a soft brush or vacuum to remove dust, leaves, or other materials from the burner. This will ensure a consistent flame and proper function.

• Rock Curing (For River Rock Pits): Before the first use, it’s essential to cure the river rock. Remove any cracked rocks and ignite the fire pit for at least 1 hour to remove moisture from the rocks. Do not light the fire pit if the rocks are wet, as this can cause them to crack or pop due to thermal shock.
• Winter Storage: If not using your fire pit during the colder months, disconnect the fuel source (if applicable) and ensure the fire pit is covered or stored in a sheltered location to prevent moisture buildup and rust. Do not allow water to enter the burner system. This can lead to malfunction or improper ignition. Always ensure your fire pit is dry before use.
