On outdoor seating do we need to use Textile medium first?

I used it on my patio umbrella. Didn't get the best results, but fabric is definitely stronger and closer to the original color.

I would color test the items in a small area first but with London Fog the fabric should be colorfast. It should work great.

The woven pattern of the whole seating area is of the same tightness throughout. You could use this set without cushions if you like, however it is designed to be used with the cushions to allow for maximum comfort.

I don't think so. It's a woven material, not easily wiped down to assure that you disinfect all surfaces that could be soiled/contaminated.

It depends on what material you use for the seats and the length of the seats, and the size of the people who will be using it. If you use composite all weather decking like I did, you will need additional support in the middle and braces from the middle to the ends. I also made the seats 16 inches wide. If you use treated lumber it will be stronger than untreated and will last longer. Additional material will also increase the weight, although more stable, it will be harder to move the table and seats around. For a normal size 6 foot table, and average size persons, the 2 by 4s will be probably be ok, you can always add the additional supports if it turns out to need it.

I don't have the materials provided, but I would only use outside if in a covered location as it is not supposed to get wet.

If used outdoors, I would be sure to bring it in at night so it doesn't get stained. The material is not water resistant.

You can use a mixture of turpentine and linseed oil, about 50/50. I use it on my outdoor furniture. It is ready to use in a day or two. But you have to repeat every year or every other year. That is the way with anything left outside year round.

I was using it about 2yrs ago so am not sure but I recall it being just fabric, not of a hardy structure. I could be wrong but I don't think it would make any difference. Think I used to shove the bags in the foot area to prop up the seat.

Hello Patrick, I would contact a professional. I only use the good fabric and plastic plants.Orada Lawrence

I would recommend the foot print. The floor material is thick, but it is always best to have the extra layer of protection.

I live in Canada, Northern Ontario. A ground pad in your environment is more for comfort than climate. But don't rule it out. Keeps the moisture off your back.

There is assembly required so it shouldn't be a problem. However it is a nice material and very neutral. If you are going to go to the trouble of new fabric, I'd plann a little more padding too.

Im not sure. I have mine outside but its under a covered area. To be on the safe side I would bring the cushion inside.

Sorry, I live in Melbourne, FL so we don't worry about covering it. Check in the outdoor departments (Lowe's, Home-Depot, etc.) for outside/exterior furniture weather covering. Good luck-we really enjoy and use our Keter in the swimming pool area under a screened lanai. Happy Holidays! Duane

I haven't tried myself. I use mine for an impromptu outdoor theater (I built a PVC pipe frame). I put it up for use then take it right down taking care to not let it touch the ground or get dirty. I can say though, as a cyclist, I have a variety of spandex type clothing that I wash on a regular basis. I've never had a problem there. This thing is just spandex with some grommets. I think that the grommets are brass and thus rust resistant.

I think you can if your fabric is not too thick. I have not tried fabric, so you be the first!
