Keeping the wooden slats on our urban benches clean and well-maintained is simpler than you might think! Here's a straightforward guide. First, give the bench a good brush-down with a stiff-bristled brush to remove loose dirt, leaves, and debris. For a deeper clean, mix a mild soap (like a gentle dish soap) with warm water. Use a soft brush or cloth to scrub the slats with this solution, following the direction of the wood grain. Avoid harsh chemicals or pressure washers, as they can damage the wood fibers. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. It's best to do this on a cloudy day or when the bench is in the shade to prevent the soap from drying too quickly. After cleaning, let the wood dry completely for at least 24-48 hours. For long-term maintenance and protection, applying a high-quality wood sealant or outdoor oil once a year is highly recommended. This crucial step shields the wood from moisture, UV rays, and everyday wear, preventing cracking, warping, and graying. Regular cleaning and annual sealing will keep your community benches looking beautiful, functional, and welcoming for years to come.
