I have gotten some wicker furnituer that has been outdoors and has some small specks of mold on it.?

Question

what would be the safest way to clean it off, and what kind of paint could be used on it

Answer 1

I cleaned mine with a water hose, bucket of soapy water and a soft scrub brush.  New Dawn is a great soap, and can be used on anything.  If you want, add a small amount of bleach to the water.  Set in the sun to dry a few days.  Turn it upside down and scrub it that way first, then right side up and rinse.  I have read two articles on painting them, one says oil based, which it had originally, and one says water based paint.  A brush was the old way to do it, spray paint is the easiest way, but expensive, unless you have access to a sprayer.  Again, start upside down, then turn right side up to finish.  Just be sure you put down cardboard before you paint.  Get the boxes from the back of a furniture store, and fold them up to fit your car.  Make sure it is about 18" wider than the piece of furniture.  Paint in the shade, dry in the sun.
