Lets start with materials. What is your METAL outdoor furniture made of? Steel or Aluminum? How Can I Tell?

Magnets are attracted to steel but not aluminum due to the difference in their magnetic properties. The key factor that determines whether a material is attracted to a magnet is its magnetic susceptibility. Magnetic susceptibility is a measure of how easily a material can be magnetized or attracted by a magnetic field. The difference in magnetic properties between steel and aluminum is the reason why magnets are attracted to steel but not to aluminum. Steel has a high magnetic susceptibility and can become strongly magnetized, while aluminum has a very low magnetic susceptibility and is only weakly attracted to magnetic fields.

Think about steel nails vs aluminum nails. Steel nails will be attracted to the magnet. Aluminum nails will not. If you have a small magnet around the house, give it a try. It's a very simple test.If it easily attaches to your patio chair frame, then your patio chair or chaise is made of steel or wrought iron, not aluminum.
