UNDERWOOD, , Home Economics Extension Agent , SPRUCE UP OUTDOOR FURNITURE ; Outdoor furniture, which may include wrought iron, red wood, wicker or aluminum, should be checked and refur-. bished before heavy seasonal use takes its toll. Here are some methods. Wrought Iron Hose off with detergent or soap suds and rinse. Retouch nicks or chips with enamel paint to prevent rusting. If paint is cracked or peeling, remove it and traces of rust with steel wool or a stiff brush. Then wash with a metal conditioner, according to directions. Rinse and dry. Coat wrought iron with metal primer and then enamel. Maintain the finish by applying a metal-wax coating periodically. i Redwood Remove dirt by vacuuming with a vacuum hose attachment, or by wiping with a damp cloth. If pieces are cracked or split, pry apart gently and work in water proof glue. At least once during the season, seal redwood underneath and on top with a redwood sealer which protects the wood against moisture, dirt and stains while restoring furniture to its original color. If the furniture needs to be refinished, apply a paint remover, rinse and allow to dry thoroughly. Since redwood scratches easily, sand away sur face stains or marks with very fine sandpaper; wipe away residue. Then apply clear or lightly tinted wood stain, a waterproof penetrating fisish or a redwood preservative to bring back its natural color. ' Aluminum is rust-resistant, but can become dull, pitted and dirty. Use a stiff brush dipped in detergent or soap suds to remove dust and dirt from aluminum frames. Polish with a steel wool soap pad and rinse. Dry with a clean cloth. Restore luster with auto paste wax. To remove discolora tions, wash aluminum with a metal conditioner' rinse and polish with steel wool. Wipe clean with paint thinner, then coat aluminum with a clear, non-yellowing acrylic lacquer. Wicker and Rattan should be vacuumed thoroughly to rid surfaces of dust. Repair loose strands with waterproof ' glue.-Tack into place with rustproof nails. When glue has dried thoroughly, scrub wicker or rattan with a brush dip ped in detergent or soap and warm water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Spray with a coat of clear varnish. If badly stained, spray the furniture with outdoor enamel after washing. Accessories or component parts plastic webbing, plastic or canvas cushions and seats, hammocks should also be either restored or replaced. Mend frayed or ripped areas if possible, and wash webbing and seats with a sudsy brush or sponge. Rinse and dry.
