Use and Care Manual

Although powder-coated MDF is a durable, seamless surface, it
is not completely impervious to stains and damage from moisture or
heat. Simply take the same precautions you would with any wood
furniture. Avoid dragging sharp or rough objects across the surface of
your furniture. Use adhesive felt pads, trivets, coasters and placemats
to help prevent scratches. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean as needed.
For spot cleaning, use an all-purpose cleaner or a solution of water and
mild detergent. Wipe Dry
Steel, also known as inox, is an alloy that does not readily rust
nor wear with excessive cleaning. However, all grades of steel will stain
and discolor without proper maintenance and cleaning. Although they are
not hard to maintain, steel furniture requires a little cleaning and
maintaining to keep them shinning and functioning well. If not properly
cleaned, they can develop rust that is going to inhibit their functionality.
Steel is superior to other metals because it contains other metals such
as nickel and chromium that prevents it from easy corrosion. However,
galvanized
steel should not be confused with stainless steel. Galvanized steel is
steel that has been coated with a layer of zinc.
The first step in cleaning is removing any physical item that may be
laying on the surface you are about to clean. The surface should be free
of any items, especially those items that can be damaged while
performing cleaning.
After you wipe any dirt or debris on the surface, gather the items that
you are going to use while cleaning. Non-abrasive cleaning rags are
preferred because they don't leave any residue lint. Paper towels can
also be used, but they tend to leave some lint that is visible when
the furniture dries.
Dish soap is the best agent for cleaning grime on steel surfaces.
Most steel restaurant furniture is contaminated by grim that comes
from the food that the restaurant serves. Dish soap is good at
breaking the bond between the steel surface and oil that may settle
there.
To clean it, put some dish soap on your rug and add a little
water on it to moisten it. Wipe over the surface that you are
cleaning. If there is a stubborn stain or an oil deposit, you may
have to go over the stain several times to disintegrate and remove
it.
After you finish wiping, rinse the rag and wipe over any remnants
of the cleaning solution or moisture from the surface of the
furniture. After it has dried, drop a few drops of mineral or baby oil
on a dry rug. Rub the rug against the item until it is properly
polished
