Cleaning white resin furniture
I borrowed some old white resin chairs this week. They were really stained from being stacked all winter outside. I put Lysol cling toilet bowl cleaner with bleach directly on, worked in with a scrubby sponge, let sit for a few hours then hosed off and they look 100% better! It worked, It worked!

Great tip. Its amazing how yucky those chairs can get year to year. Of course I started out buying part of mine at a yard sale so they had a lot of grime to begin with. I will try the toilet bowl cleaner. It would certainly cling to the dirt better than just plain bleach and water and nothing else much works. Thanks.

I never thought about using toilet bowl cleaner on those chairs! Glad to hear that something works to clean them up. I will try that! Thanks!

Try a baking soda paste too. Much cheaper and safer!
