Updating my old lawn chairs
My lawn chairs were getting old and dirty looking. No amount of cleaning, even with my trusted Shaklee products, could now make them new again.

You can see how weathered they look!
So I decided to do some updating. First the chairs were cleaned with my Shaklee products to get all the dust and grim of. After I had soaped in the chairs, I just hosed them down on the lawn. Basic-H is Eco-friendly and won’t hurt the grass at all. Because it is a wetting agent, it can even help the grass grow!
Painting the chairs
After some research, I settled on painting the chairs and bought a can of black Rust-Oleum paint. I bought this at out local Rona store.

Then I just brushed on the paint.
First coat with black Rust-Oleum paint
I was pretty please with just the one coat of paint. When dry, I added another coat, and finally just touched up a few spots that had not covered well.
Here is the final product:

I love how it turned out!
