If your furniture has been damaged by a pressure washer the solution is to sand it down smooth again, although you don't want to have to do this too many times. Instead, I recommend cleaning it all over with a wood cleaner, giving it light sand, and then applying a saturating wood oil. Apply the cleaner using a scrubbing brush or stiff broom, rinse with clean water and repeat as necessary until the timber is clean.

Also ensure that you use a natural bristle brush because it is soft enough to keep the rattan from damage and flexible enough to reach the hidden parts of the furniture.

Do not use varnish or non-recommended sealers on wood furniture as this can damage the wood and will require much more sanding/maintenance etc in the long run.
