Product Care - Frames

Aluminum

Aluminum frames offer exceptionally easy maintenance. To maintain the appearance of your Homecrest Outdoor Living furniture, regular care and maintenance of the aluminum frames is recommended. Coordinate the care of frames with the amount of use or exposure to the elements or use conditions.

Cleaning

Wash or spray down the frames with clear water or with mild soap and water to remove dust, pollens, chemicals, salt water, dirt, etc. Avoid the use of any abrasive cleaners and power washers.

Maintenance

To maintain the finish of the painted surface apply a coat of clear liquid car wax at least once a year for additional protection from the outdoor elements. Overtime the finish may dull, just the same as if a car is not waxed. Use of the wax will retain or repair an exposed finish.

Coastal Environments

Product that is in use in a coastal environment may experience additional demands on the surface finish due to the salt air. A weekly or biweekly cleaning of product is recommended to clean away any buildup of salt residue and the possibility of oxidation. Quarterly waxing of the finish is recommended, to maintain a strong finish that will withstand the demands of this type of environment. If regular maintenance is not preformed and the finish experiences blistering the warranty on the finish would be void.

Storage

If the climate of your area experiences freezing conditions do not store any product upside down. Moisture can accumulate in the frames and when frozen can crack, distort or break the frame tubing.

Touch-Ups

If the finish becomes scratched or chipped, first sand the affected area lightly with fine steel wool or 400 to 600 grit sand paper for better paint adhesion. Wipe clean the area to be painted. Holding the can 8 – 10 inches away from the area, apply thin coats of paint, allowing ample time for paint to dry between coats. Do not try to cover the area with the first coat as it may result in the paint running, change in the surface texture or the gloss of the finish. Cover any adjacent areas to avoid overspray. A small amount of paint may be sprayed on a separate surface and using a small artist brush, cover the affected area.

If you are working with a finish that consists of multiple colors you may want to test on a piece of cardboard or other material. Start with the "base" coat, holding the can 8 – 10 inches away apply light coats and allow to dry 3 – 5 minutes. Next, maintaining the same distance, apply light spurts of the color until the desired look is achieved. If the area becomes too light, after the finish has dried, apply a light dusting of the base coat.

Powder Coating

Powder coating is a technique employed by Homecrest Outdoor Living for finishing metal frames. A powder-coated surface is durable and requires limited upkeep.

Tip: Contact your dealer for touch up paint. Always store your touch-up paint upside down to avoid the nozzle from becoming plugged.

About Homecrest

Homecrest combines a rich history of quality and classic design with today's demand for affordable luxury and versatile living. Homecrest's focus has broadened to encompass the increasing demands of sophisticated, style-driven consumers seeking to complement their homes' interior designs and create a seamless flow between indoors and out. Homecrest is poised to build its future on consumer and contract needs, innovative new products and global opportunities.

Rich History Since 1953

Homecrest began as an offspring of a retail furniture shop in Wadena, Minn. in 1953, when founders Mert Bottemiller and Al Engelmann set out to build a better hassock (now more commonly known as an ottoman) than their vendors could supply. They soon expanded their business into manufacturing with a growing line of indoor and outdoor patio furniture.

Bottemiller's swivel rocker mechanism, patented in 1956, was at the foundation of the Homecrest outdoor patio furniture line, which took off in the 1960s as Americans increasingly enjoyed backyard dining, entertaining and recreation. The popularity of Homecrest products soared and distribution extended nationwide.

As retail sales prospered, distribution expanded into new markets including international, and contract for resorts, restaurants and health care. The Homecrest outdoor patio furniture line also grew, with a stream of new collections, products and innovations including: self-adjusting chaise, swivel rocker recliner and chaise, gliders, padded slings and technically innovative fabrics, very low maintenance aluminum mesh, and the popular Comfort Recliner.

In the late 1990s, Baby Boomers began to fervently embrace their outdoor environments and seek more outdoor patio furnishings to satisfy their growing desire to nest and socialize with friends and family. This movement also generated increased competition from lower priced import products and other market changes, which created numerous business challenges for Homecrest.

In response to the rapidly evolving outdoor living market, Homecrest has been redefined with new leaders, owners, and manufacturing strategies, and a bold new emphasis on marketing and trend-driven design. Building upon the brand's heritage of quality, performance and comfort, Homecrest's focus has broadened to encompass the demands of increasingly sophisticated, style-driven consumers seeking to complement their homes' interior designs and create a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living spaces. The latest Homecrest collections reflect this trend, highlighted by timeless frame designs and finishes, fashionable fabrics, comfortable seating options and an array of metal and Natural Series table tops.
