Plastic garden chairs-how can i clean them?

[pikk]

We exchanged a few weeks ago & i swapped my garden furniture with the lady i exchanged with ( Duh! Yes i know, stupid!)
White plastic chairs,
They are really bad, ive tried lots of things to clean them, washing up liquid, washing liquid & powder,bleach, cillit bang, white vinegar,wire brushes,everything i could lay my hands on really!
Anyone have a quick easy solution, apart from buying new ones of course,
Thanks :O)

Blimey - sounds like a career move! If all that lot didn't make a difference give it up and treat yourself to some more. And you will have time then to use them too!!!

If scouring powder with bleach doesn't do it, then do as rabbity says and treat yourself to new ones.

If the surface was intact it wont be now with all the abrasives you have used. You will never be able to restore them.

Trip to the local tip this weekend I'm afraid.

Many thanks, i will give the scouring powder/bleach & the fine grade steel wool a go, im not beaten yet!!!!
Although the tip does sound a very good idea :O)

If they are grungy looking after all that scrubbing, you can also use cushions on them.

My neighbour has painted hers, they look very funky. No idea how long it'll last, but they look better than discoloured white.
If you decide to replace them, put the old ones on Freecycle as someone will no doubt have a use for them, don't put usable things in landfill.
