Can I paint, sand, or add aftermarket modifications to my furniture?
POLYWOOD products are designed to resist fading, moisture, humidity, and other outdoor elements. There's no need to paint, sand, refinish, or modify your furniture to keep it looking and performing at its best. In fact, doing so will void the warranty.
Why Painting, Refinishing, Sanding, or Modifying POLYWOOD Furniture Isn't Recommended
Beyond voiding the warranty, here's why it’s a good idea to keep your furniture and accessories as they are:
Painting and Refinishing
Our lumber is crafted from high-density polyethylene, a non-porous plastic that doesn't easily hold paint or stain. Any applied finish will eventually chip off.
Sanding
The surface of our lumber is designed to look and feel like natural wood. Sanding your furniture will scratch and damage the texture.
Modifications
Altering your furniture's structure, like adding wheels or drilling holes, could make it unsafe to use.
