If you're really lazy, you can spray the furniture with cleaner on a rainy day and then put it out in the rain for the wash cycle.

So does a mix of dish detergent and water. Car wash stuff works pretty well too -- you can just spray them off in the driveway and let them air dry.

If you don't want to run the risk of staining your clothes, 409 works about as well as Clorox.

Plastic furniture gets mold on it in florida. We usually spritz ours down with a water bleach solution a couple of times a month. That seems to do the trick.

I think it all depends on the material of your furniture, and the frequency you clean it. Getting mold is mostly because of huminity. But if you clean it fairly often, then you shouldn't get it. I guess maybe with some chemicals the mold wouldn't grow as fast.

We live in Florida and our pool furniture keeps getting moldy. Is there a way to keep that from happening?
