Park chairs are often exposed to the elements, making them susceptible to stains from falling leaves. Tree leaf stains, caused by tannins and moisture, can leave unsightly marks on metal, wood, or plastic surfaces. Here’s how to handle them effectively:

1. Regular Cleaning: Wipe chairs with a damp cloth to prevent stains from setting. For stubborn marks, use mild soap and water.

2. Natural Solutions: A mix of vinegar and water (1:1 ratio) can break down tannin stains. Apply with a soft brush, then rinse.

3. Commercial Cleaners: Opt for eco-friendly outdoor furniture cleaners for tough stains, following manufacturer instructions.

4. Preventive Measures: Cover chairs during peak leaf-fall seasons or place them away from overhanging branches.

5. Material-Specific Care: Metal chairs may need rust inhibitors, while wooden chairs benefit from sealants to repel stains.

By addressing stains promptly and maintaining chairs properly, you can extend their lifespan and keep them looking fresh year-round.
