Introduction
Outdoor wooden furniture endures rain, sunlight, and seasonal fluctuations. Over time, chairs and tables become grey and dull. Lacq Turbogel – Wood Reviver offers a simple way to restore your furniture’s natural colour without worrying about harmful chemicals or drips ruining your patio.
Background & Challenge
Client Background
A family in Kent wanted to resurrect their faded wooden dining set for summer gatherings, but past attempts using liquid cleaners dripped off quickly, wasting product and time.
Challenge
- Multiple Furniture Pieces: Cleaning chairs, benches, and table legs thoroughly.
- Run-Off Issues: Liquid solutions didn’t cling, making coverage inconsistent.
- Concern for Landscaping: The family valued an eco-friendly approach that wouldn’t kill nearby plants.
Initial Conditions
The wood was structurally sound but heavily discoloured from sun exposure and general outdoor wear.
