I have some lovely teak garden furniture but it has some black spots on it, how do I clean them off?

I have some lovely teak garden furniture I have had for several years and I am really pleased with it but this year some black spots have appeared on it, What are the black spots, why have they appeared and how do I clean them off? I want the furniture to stay natural looking if possible.

  1. sorry to say but it is probably mold. you will need to spray some bleach on the spots and then let it sit for an hour... rinse afterwards and it should stop it from getting any worse.
  2. Hello! I live in Pa and have beautiful Teak garden furniture also. I clean it with steal wool but not the ones with soap in them. The dark spots are caused from dampness a type of wood mold. I clean my furniture mid summer then right before I put it away for winter. Good luck!

  3. contact the manufacturer
  4. I also have Teak Furniture and have come across the black spots as well. A soft bristle brush and mild detergent (laundry detergent and water) work well. There are also commercially available teak protectors and teak oils.

    (We purchased our furniture from CedarStore.com and they have care instructions right on their website.)
