Protecting your Furniture - Furniture Care

Solid Timber Furniture
Keep clean - wipe surfaces with a damp cloth and Wipe dry with a soft dry microfiber cloth in the direction of the grain
Lift items; avoid dragging across surfaces, as this may scratch the lacquer finish
Lift tables when moving around the room or to new areas, dragging may cause joints and supporting rails to weaken.
Ensure spills are cleaned up promptly as liquids may damage the lacquer to discolour or lift over time if left unattended.

Upholstery

Stains can be removed or results improved if blotted up immediately, while still wet or fresh.

  • Use white towels or absorbent cloth.
  • Keep blotting and changing the absorbent material until no more of the spillage or coloured matter is being removed.
  • Pre-test all solutions on an inconspicuous area.
  • Hold a white towel against the tested area for a few seconds and examine to make sure no colour has transferred. 
  • When using liquid cleaners work from the outer ring of the stain, toward the centre.  Always rinse with clear water and blot dry to finish, as detergent residue tends to attract soiling. 
  • If in any doubt, contact a cleaning specialist.
