How do I care for plastic patio chairs?

Hi, do you have pictures of them?

Wipe with clean damp cloth for removing dirt.

I heard a long time ago that you can use car wax on them when they're brand new. If you get the kind that has UV protection in it, that might keep them from fading.

You can also do this with the big plastic yard toys.

Up until this summer, my plastic chairs got a gray/black coating on them from the walnut trees. The only way to get them clean was using a pressure washer. Mine is an electric one, so it's not as powerful as the gas powered washers. They might be too powerful and cause damage - or not.

LOL! Sorry.....I just noticed that they posted ONE time and it was over two months ago. Do you think they will return?

Well, howdaya like that?

I didn't even notice the date.

What's worse, is that I replied to it today and later, DangerMouse reported it as a spam. The guy had a spam website in his signature. But it's a good question, so he's gone and we're keeping the question.

To answer your question though, no he won't be returning. Or she.

funny how I've never given any thought to the question till you guys started answering it...

Question barb... is car sealing wax ok for kids to ingest? I'm just wondering because my littlest still chews on everything and if I use it on the kids outside play stuffs, would it be a problem later down the line?

Hmm, I hadn't thought about that! I guess you'd have to read the labels, but once you rub most of it off with a cloth, it doesn't seem like there would be enough left on the plastic to hurt the kids. That's just my guess though.

I'm going to go on the Turtle Wax website to see if I can ask your question in an email to them. I'll let you know what I find out.

Good question!!
