How to keep the best garden picnic bench clean – Guide

If you’ve invested in a wooden garden picnic bench then obviously you want to keep it clean.

Whether your a business such as a pub or if you have one sitting in your garden space, keeping the wood looking tidy is important.

We think Cuprinol are one of the leading names when it comes to treating wood and cleaning wood.

Cuprinol garden furniture cleaner has been specifically formed and created to remove dirt, stains, grime and grease.

This cleaner contains added orange oil which will help nourish the wood.

This will leave your seating looking beautiful throughout the months when it is mostly used. Simply spray this product sparingly and wipe away the dirt.

There is no need to rinse with water afterwards. The Cuprinol furniture cleaner will leave your garden picnic bench in tip top condition.

The alternative to all these is to build your own picnic bench! To do a good job you need to be handy with your tools! Here’s a video guide on how its done.

As you can see the flat pack option is by far the easiest!

Thinking about jazzing up an old table? Here’s a couple of fantastic painted tables we’ve seen. These really would be an outstanding addition to a modern looking home and garden.

Painted picnic bench

This one has been done by home depot in the USA and you can read the blog on how they did it here – http://blog.homedepot.com/painted-picnic-table-sunburst-diy/.

It’s actually easier than it looks to do and is just a fantastic addition if you want something fresher than a standard wooden bench for your picnics.

Nicely painted classic picnic bench

This is a much more classic bench with a nice twist of a deep coloured oil on top and painted seats and legs.

This one has come from pintrest and was an old table that was sanded down and re painted.

A brilliant way to freshen up and old bench – but there’s nothing stopping you doing such a paint job on a new one too if you prefer the painted look.

There’s a range of finishes available if you buy intreated wood.

At the moment its very popular to paint them with Cuprinol shades in light greys with contracting legs.

If you’re an avid user of Pinteret you’ll also see the dipped leg look proving very popular if you want to add a very modern twist to the table.

We’re big fans of this look, who wants a plain wooden table when you can funk it up!
