We at Crownhill Garden Furniture Ltd have listed some tips and information for looking after your Dining Set or Indoor Furniture.
Maintaining Oak Furniture
When you receive your furniture it will require periodic up keep to make sure it looks its best for years to come, don’t panic it’s only a few minutes every 3 months or so and the good news is this becomes less frequent with time.
Be sure firstly to follow the manufacturers documentation with regards to looking after your furniture as this will form part of the terms of your furniture’s warranty.
Maintaining your furniture will be dependant on the type of finish that has been supplied by the manufacturer.
Lacquered finish – Once a week with a damp cloth without any detergents and be sure to dry with a soft lint free cloth, this type of finish is the lowest maintenance option.
Wax Finishes – Every 6 months apply a high quality furniture wax not polish. A wax finished piece of furniture will age individually and two piece’s of furniture from the same supplier may age differently this adds to the overall character of the wood.
Oil finish – Every 3 months for the first year apply a high quality boiled linseed oil or Danish oil which will help the Oak be more water resistant but will not make it waterproof, as always mop up any water spills immediately.
After the first year the frequency in which you apply the oil to your furniture can reduce to every 6 months, applying more frequently will not have a detrimental effect. Follow the manufacturers instructions for application.
Important Do's & Dont's
DO use place mats & coasters on glass surfaces as they WILL scratch
