To ensure long lasting beauty some maintenance is required for quality furniture. Check out some product-specific tips or basic general care.
Wood FinishesDusting – From time to time use a soft cloth to remove dust in between and prior to damp cloth cleanings.
Cleaning – Typically a water dampened cloth will do the trick, but using soap designed specifically for wood products can get more stubborn oil-type areas. Follow manufacturers’ instructions on the bottle when using these types of cleaners. Be sure to dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
Spills – Blot, don’t wipe. Make mom happy and use a coaster.
Matte Paint FinishesDusting – From time to time use a soft cloth to remove dust in between and prior to damp cloth cleanings.
Cleaning – Matte paint finishes should not be waxed or polished because the result will be an undesired gloss. Avoid oil-based furniture cleaning products for this reason. Typically a water-dampened cloth will do the trick. Be sure to dry all moisture thoroughly with a soft cloth.
Spills – Blot, don’t wipe. Some white blushing may occur from the moisture and should go away when dried completely.
