A wooden deckchair is a very common choice for relaxation. It takes up little space, and we can rest and relax comfortably on it. Therefore, it must be comfortable and stable. We spread it on the beach, in the garden, on the terrace or balcony. We use it from spring to autumn. Therefore, in order to buy a wooden deckchair that will last for years, we must know how to take care of it
Renovating a wooden deckchair, what should you pay attention to?
The base of the lounger is both wood and material. Garden furniture is exposed to weather conditions, rain and strong sunlight. Over time, it causes the fabric to deteriorate. Even the most durable material will show traces of use after some time.
Material - replace or sew
When choosing a material for a wooden deckchair , make sure that the fabric is waterproof, quick-drying, durable, resistant to dirt and weather conditions. After some time of use, it is known that it may become damaged or stained. First of all, dirt should be removed as quickly as possible, before it dries and becomes difficult to remove. If the material is no longer suitable for use, we can easily remove it and put it back on 
new. After removing the damaged fabric, simply measure it and install a new one of the same length.
Frame impregnation is essential
Even very damaged wooden furniture can be renovated. We often find an old wooden deckchair in the garage, basement or attic and wonder if there is something else we can do with it. Of course, with a little effort, we will give it a new life. The first step you should take is cleansing. The surface should be degreased, removed dirt and then lightly sanded using coarse-grained paper. The next step will be to secure the wood to protect it from radiation or moisture. Use existing wood impregnation agents for this purpose. We can paint with acrylic paint, spray or varnish stain. The choice is huge and the decision is only ours. Apply the preparation twice when the first layer dries. It is best to paint the deckchair in a shaded place, not at high temperatures, as this may result in a less durable covering.
