Use and Care Manual

P. 1/6
Your furniture purchase is an investment. Furniture can last life times, with a minimum amount of effort.
Here are a few tips to properly care for your furniture, ensuring that it looks great year after year.
Wood Furniture Maintenance:
-Always dust, wipe, and clean with the grain of the wood.
-Dust with a soft cloth. Dust will scratch the furniture
surface if not removed properly.
-Use the same type of polish consistently as interchanging
oil-based and wax-based polishes will cause a build-up
and result in a foggy or cloudy appearance.
-If a polished surface become foggy, rub it with a cloth
dipped in a solution of one tablespoon vinegar to one
quart of water .
Rub softly with the grain until the surface is completely dry.
-Soap and water are not advisable for wood surfaces. Water
can penetrate the finish and raise the grain on wood, causing
damage.
-Remember to change dusting cloths frequently as dirty
cloths may scratch your funiture's surface .
The Enemies of Wood:
-Moisture is wood's worst enemy. Liquid spills should be
gently wiped up immediately. Coasters should be used under
all beverages.
-Do not allow rubber or vinyl materials to lie on the furniture.
Chemicals in rubber may leave a stain.Put a strip of felt or
leather under accessories that have rubber or vinyl.
-Heat creates a chemical change in the furniture's finish, which
results in a white spot. Use protective pads under hot dishes,
appliances, etc.
-Sunlight's ultraviolet rays can damage the finish of furniture.
Do not place furniture directly against heater or radiator and
do not place in the path of hot streams of air from central heating
This will cause extreme localized drying of the wood.
High Gloss Resin Table Maintenance:
-Resin tabletops have approximately 1/8" of a resin coat on the top
face of the table, which will resist ice, water, wine, liquor, food,
cleaning fluids, and warm or hot liquids; however, cups, glasses,
etc, containing hot liquids should not be left on the table without a
coaster for protection.
-Resin tabletops will scratch just the same as any other glossy
surface and basic precautions should be taken.
-For lasting shine, the resin should be waxed with a car wax
the does not contain silicon. Maintaining this wax build-up will
result in a high gloss shine.
-When wiping down the table, a soft, clean rag should be used.
Do not use a heavy paper.
Granite Top Maintenance:
The surface of granite on your table has been polished or sealed to
create a generally non-porous surface. The stone has many natural
characteristics including: veining, hairline cracks, and color variations-
which make up the stone's beauty.
To maintain the beauty of your granite:
- Protect surfaces from scratching, staining and etching by
*Keeping them free of debris or sharp objects.
*Wiping up spills immediately.
*Avoiding contact with chemicals (particularly acid -based materials)
-Clean with pH neutral products or those especially formulated for
use on stone.
-It is not recommended to use a water - based solvent for dark granite as it
remove the polish from the surface.
- After a period of use, apply a penetrating sealer to prevent contaminants
from being absorbed into the stone.
-Remove stains with special absorbent poultices formulated for use on stone.
-Renew the surface on polished granite (granite with a high gloss surface)
by buffing with special stone polish, powder or cream.
Do not use granite polish on granite with a matte finish, which has been
honed rather than polished. (Penetrating sealer may be used on both
polished and honed granite).
Marble Top Maintenance :
Marble may be stone, but it is porous stone and can stain easily. Treating
marble surfaces the same as wood surfaces is a great rule of thumb.
-It is recommended to seal the tops on a regular basis (every 6 to 12 months)
A good quality stone sealer can be purchased from any tiles/stone store or
any homecare store and should be applied according to the
manufacture's recommendation.
-When sealed properly, marble tops can be used indoors and outdoors
and can withstand any weather conditions except internal freezing.
Snow or freezing rain will penetrate the table and cause cracks.
Caring for the Fabric on Upholstered Funiture:
-Frequent vacuuming of the entire uphostered area will prevent dust from
settling in to the fibers.
-Professional cleaning is aways recomended for all upholstered pieces.
-Always pre -test a small area of fabric in a inconspicuous area when
cleaning before proceeding.
-Do not use cleaning products containing brightenning agents.
