What About An Iron Outdoor Furniture Table

Iron is making a real comeback in the world of garden furniture and you are likely to have little trouble finding a beautiful Iron outdoor furniture table. Iron used to be associated with the wealthy who would use it not only to create intricately carved garden furniture but also for the railings and gates to their lavish homes. Iron lasts forever if it is well cared for. The good news is that there is plenty of antique iron garden furniture available, the bad news is that it may need some tender loving care to return it to its former glory.

If you buy an antique iron outdoor furniture table it is likely to be at least partially covered in rust. Don’t despair as it won’t take long to return it to its former beauty. Get a rust removing brush and gently brush away the rust using a mixture of the brush and some sanding paper. Always wear a mask when doing this type of work and keep young children away from the treatment area. Once the area is clear of rust you can repaint the piece using a primer and then suitable paint. You may need to apply a protective coating of paint if you plan on leaving the table outdoors all winter.

If you don’t fancy doing the work yourself, you should be able to find a local craftsman to do it for you instead. Once it is completed and ready to be used, you can keep your iron furniture in top condition by cleaning it regularly using mild soap and water. You can use the garden hose to rinse off any soap residue and leave it to dry naturally.

Check your iron outdoor furniture table and other garden furnishings on a regular basis for rust. It is much easier to treat the first signs of rust than to have to sand down the entire piece again.
