How To Take Care Of Your Furniture
Wood
- Regularly clean your wood furniture using a soft cloth to minimize the accumulated dust.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals when cleaning your wood furniture. Only use wood-approved cleaners.
- Refrain from putting hot and cold objects directly on the wood. The use of place mats and coasters are highly recommended.
- Note the furniture’s sunlight exposure, as it can result in spotting where bright and dark spots appear in the wood.
- Be gentle when moving around your furniture pieces to avoid scratches and potential damage.
Fabric
- Regularly clean your upholstered furniture. You can use a vacuum to draw out all the loose dust and dirt from the furniture.
- Spills should be immediately cleaned by using a damp cloth. Be gentle when doing so, and remember to use fabric-friendly cleaning products.
- Avoid placing your furniture in direct sunlight, as it can fade the fabric over time.
- Flip and fluff cushions and loose seat cushions frequently to maintain the shape of the furniture.
Metal
- Spills should be wiped immediately using a clean, dry cloth.
- Avoid using steel wool or scouring pads when cleaning the metal parts of your furniture as these can scratch and damage the metal surface.
- Light, heat, and moisture can cause metal objects to corrode. It’s best to place metal furniture in a well-ventilated and temperature-stabled space.
Duco Paint
