Freshen up exhausted patio furniture upholstery
The dark blue upholstery of my terrace set (about 15 years old) had turned gray by the sun.
Tip for refreshing: Simply dye with a commercially available textile dye in the washing machine according to the instructions for use.
Like New!
MissChaos: 1 package costs between 5.00 and 9.00 Euro. And one thing is definitely not enough.But then I still have no coloring salt and calculated the electricity and water costs.
Apart from the fact that I could never put my 6 pads all together in the WaMa. I would have to do 2 or even 3 WaMa passes. The work I have to bring the whole thing from the terrace in the basement and back up and airy where hang so that they can dry mold-free.
Since I prefer to make every 2-3 years, depending on the degree of wear, new editions. They do not cost the world either. In spring and autumn Lidl, Aldi and co are always on favorable terms for "catching". Marmot: If you absolutely insist on repainting the upholstery, then you should buy some with plain-colored covers and on the other hand you should take a little more money into your hand and buy upholstery that can be removed by a zipper , If it is then still the right material - cotton - is the dyeing of the parts nothing in the way. Logically, you will certainly not come up with a pack of paint, but in any case you can probably put all the covers in the machine at the same time - at least if it's not more than 6 pieces - I guess!
