Benefits of Steel Furniture:
Steel doesn’t dent or get bent out of shape as easily as some aluminum furnishings can. Lighter than wrought iron but heavier than aluminum, steel provides strength, stability, and endurance in extreme temperatures. Powder-coated finishes protect against rust and corrosion. Galvanized steel lasts longer and requires less maintenance than other forms of steel.

Steel Furniture Precautions:
Dining chairs, side tables, and other items that have to move frequently aren’t good candidates for heavy steel. Any kind of chip in the finish can allow rust to get going, too, so if you live in a humid or rainy area, steel won’t provide zero-maintenance ease.

How to Clean Steel Furniture:
• Wash dust and pollen from metal garden furniture using a periodic spray-down with clean water and mild suds.
• When you see a chip in the finish, act fast to touch it up. Wash the area, sand away any hint of rust, and apply a matching protective paint to the area.
• Apply clear liquid car wax at least once a year to protect the finish
