Clean aluminum patio furniture with citrus and cream of tartar.
Aluminum tables and chairs provide you with a durable, weather-resistant outdoor furniture option that lasts for many years without deterioration. To keep your aluminum looking its best, clean regularly with low-cost elements you probably already have in your home. Household products safely remove buildup and keep the aluminum looking like new.
Instructions
1. Wipe down the aluminum table and chairs with a dry cleaning rag to remove loose dust. Use a damp rag for stuck-on dirt and debris. Clean weekly or as needed depending on the amount of buildup that accumulates.
2. Mix 2 cups of water with 1/2 cup of lemon juice, lime juice or white vinegar. Any of these ingredients has a slight acidic content that safely cleans aluminum.
3. Add 1 tbsp. of cream of tartar to the spray bottle to boost cleaning power.
4. Spray the solution onto the aluminum and wipe off with a damp cleaning rag. Continue as needed until all aluminum is clean.
5. Rub a thin layer of car wax over the aluminum yearly or as needed to protect the aluminum and keep the furniture looking shiny and clean.
