Happy Anniversary on the purchase of your Playset!
- Come to the Playground King Store and buy a can of Rainbow Cedar or Redwood Stain & a Staining Mitten. It is extremely important to use the correct stain.
- Remove the tarp (if applicable), slide and swings.
- Tape off or cover items like rocks, swing hangers, rungs and ropes, etc.
- Mix 50/50 solution of bleach and water in a garden sprayer. Spray the entire playset with this solution from the top to the bottom, inside and out of the playset.
- Let it sit for about 30-60 minutes.
- Rinse the playset thoroughly. Start from the top of the playset and work your way down, inside and out. Using a pressure washer may give the best results (2000 PSI or less), stay at least 6” – 12” away so you do not cause harm to the wood. Alternatively, you may use a hose to rinse the playset.
- Let the playset dry for one day, or more as needed, in the sun until dry.
- While the playset is drying, tighten all the hardware everywhere on the playset; don’t forget the top of the swing beam! Do a safety-check on the playset.
- Sand down any areas that need attention, typically where hands/feet touch, if applicable.
- Using your mitten, stain the playset by hand top to bottom, inside & out. Keep a wet rag on hand to wipe off as needed.
- The whole process varies depending on which playset you have, count on about 1-2 days.
- Keep children off the playset until completely dry, up to 24-48 hours.
