Outdoor furniture, such as patio furniture and lounge chairs, can get stained by food or drink spills. Mustard is one of those particularly difficult stains to remove. It is a combination of yellow and brown and can sometimes leave an orangey-yellowish hue on your furniture.
Removing Mustard Stains from Outdoor Furniture
To get rid of mustard stains on outdoor furniture, you will need to use a few household items. First, mix equal parts warm water and white vinegar in a bowl. Dip a soft cloth into the solution and use it to blot stain. Do not rub or scrub at the stain as this can cause it to become ground into the material.
If stain still remains, try using a mixture of mild laundry detergent and warm water. Use a soft bristle brush to gently scrub stain. If it persists, try using a stronger cleaning solution such as rubbing alcohol.
Keep in mind that rubbing alcohol can damage some fabric materials, so make sure to check the material of your furniture before using it. Once you have used cleaning solution, rinse with cool water and dry with a clean cloth.
Preventing Mustard Stains on Outdoor Furniture
The best way to prevent mustard stains on your outdoor furniture is to cover it when not in use. This will protect it from the elements and any spills or accidents. You should also be mindful of what items you are placing on your furniture and always use placemats and coasters for drinks and food.
Also make sure you clean up any spills as soon as possible. This will reduce chances of stain becoming permanent. If you do spot a stain, act quickly to treat it and rinse with cool water.
