Ropes

Care & Maintenace

Stained Finish:

The original color of all woods will gray out with time when placed in outdoor environments and exposed to ultra violet rays (UV). This is a function of UV light bleaching the wood over time.

If you want to preserve the original stained color of our cedar porch swings, we recommend the simple application of Penofin Verde or Penofin Blue Label 1 x per season or as needed depending on the environment. Penofin contains a UV protector that will slow the color change process.

Painted Finish:

As painted wood ages naturally, you should expect to see some loss of sheen and some surface cracking.  

Our painted finish delivers exceptional long-lasting resistance to blistering, peeling, dirt pickup, chalking, mildew and color fade.  Eventually, you may need to repaint using a high quality Satin Exterior Acrylic Latex paint following manufacturer's instructions.

Wood is a natural material subject to changes in the environment. The look and feel of natural wood is part of the appeal of owning wood outdoor furniture. Although cedar is naturally stable, small imperfections in the wood surface may appear if the furniture is placed in dry or sunny environments.  But even as nature matures your furniture, the wood and the product will remain structurally sound for years to come.

Built to Last...

Nostalgic porch swings can be left outside under roof all year long — However, during extended periods when the swing is not in use it is advisable to use a breathable outdoor furniture cover to protect your swing from the elements and extend the life of the finish.  With a little care and maintenance your porch swing can remain beautiful and functional for generations to come.
