How To Restore Outdoor Timber Furniture - DIY At Bunnings

How To Restore Outdoor Timber Furniture - DIY At Bunnings

Hi I'm Adam and today I'm going to show you
with a little bit of TLC how you can bring your timber outdoor furniture back to life.
All you need is a brush, some wood cleaning solution, some old rags, light sand paper
and a block, outdoor furniture oil, a drop sheet, a good quality paint brush and remember
your safety gear. I'm going to show you how to restore this timber bench but the process
works the same for all timber furniture. First give your bench a good brush down to get rid
of any dirt and cobwebs. And now it's time to give it a good sand.

I'm using a fine grit
sandpaper and wrapping it around this sanding block which makes the job easier. Next we
need to prep the timber with a wood cleaning solution. Take an old rag, dip it into the
solution and rub that over the timber like this, then give it a good scrub. Once you're
done give it a good rinse off with a pressure washer or a hose.

Now that it's dry we're
ready to oil our furniture. Apply the first coat. Work in the direction of the grain in
small sections at a time. When you're done give it a wipe down with a clean cloth, then
leave it to dry for 12 hours before you give it a second coat.

You can already see what
a difference its made. A little bit of TLC. Like this will keep it looking great for years.
