How do I care for my Backyard Bar?
Always close up the bar leaner and door, as the internal linings are untreated and do not like rain. The exterior can be cared for the same way you care for your home - washed each year to remove build-up of salt deposits, bird droppings, mould, and other contaminants that can interact with the surface coating. Repainting should be scheduled every 7-10 years.
