Social media is full of people spray-painting their old wicker. It looks great in the photo. But how does it hold up?
The Flaking Issue
Wicker flexes when you sit on it. Paint forms a hard shell. When the wicker moves, the paint cracks and flakes off.
The Better Alternative
Instead of painting, use a restorative oil for natural rattan, or replace damaged strands for synthetic wicker.
💡 The Bottom Line
Quick aesthetic fixes often lead to long-term headaches. Repair the material, don’t just cover it up.
