How to repair cracks in cedar outdoor pet waste bins?
Cedar outdoor pet waste bins are durable but can develop cracks over time due to weather exposure. To repair these cracks, start by cleaning the bin thoroughly with a brush and mild soap to remove debris. Allow it to dry completely. Next, apply a waterproof wood filler or epoxy into the cracks, pressing it firmly to fill gaps. Use a putty knife to smooth the surface and remove excess filler. Let it cure as per the product instructions. Once dry, sand the area with fine-grit sandpaper until smooth. Finally, seal the entire bin with a cedar-friendly sealant or stain to prevent future cracks and protect against moisture. Regular maintenance, like reapplying sealant annually, can extend the bin's life. This simple DIY repair restores functionality and keeps your outdoor space tidy.
