How often should pine outdoor loungers be sanded to maintain smoothness?
Pine outdoor loungers require regular sanding to maintain their smoothness and prevent rough surfaces caused by weather exposure. Generally, sanding every 6 to 12 months is recommended, depending on usage and climate conditions. In harsh environments with high humidity or intense sunlight, more frequent sanding—every 4 to 6 months—may be necessary.
Start by lightly sanding the surface with medium-grit sandpaper (120-150 grit) to remove imperfections, followed by fine-grit sandpaper (220 grit) for a polished finish. Always clean the surface before sanding and apply a protective sealant afterward to enhance durability. Regular maintenance not only keeps your loungers smooth but also extends their lifespan.
