How do you prevent color transfer from fabrics to outdoor flower box surfaces?
Color transfer from fabrics to outdoor flower box surfaces can be a frustrating issue, especially when vibrant fabrics bleed onto light-colored boxes. To prevent this, start by pre-washing new fabrics to remove excess dye. Use a color-catching sheet during washing to trap loose dyes. Apply a fabric sealant or fixative to lock in colors before placing fabrics near flower boxes. Opt for UV-resistant and colorfast outdoor fabrics designed to withstand the elements. Regularly inspect and clean flower box surfaces to address any early signs of staining. For added protection, consider using a clear sealant on the flower box surface to create a barrier against dye transfer. These simple steps will help maintain the beauty of both your fabrics and flower boxes.
