Good as new! Plastic patio furniture.

Cleaning lady
So your patio furniture has been sitting in the rain and mud in the garden all winter. The sun is out and you finally get a chance to use it. The problem is that it"s pretty manky and looks like it might take a lot of work to get it back to its original freshness. Well fear not. A simple, cheap and effective cleaning ... method is at hand.

All you need is

  • some sodium carbonate (also called washing soda) and
  • a bucket of hot water.

You can find sodium carbonate in the washing detergent section of most supermarkets or may already have some under the sink. Add about half a cup of sodium carbonate to about 4 litres of hot water in a bucket and stir. Apply to the furniture using a sponge. Wear some gloves to protect your hands. Leave for about ten minutes and then rinse off with warm water. Patio furniture should be as good as new!
