How to care for your Indoor Wooden Furniture

Regularly wipe over the furniture with a damp warm cloth followed by a dry soft cloth (do not use a greasy dish cloth).
To remove grease, add a few drops of detergent to a bowl of warm water then dampen a cloth with this solution and wipe over. Always clean off with another clean damp cloth and wipe dry.
To rejuvenate solid timber and veneer surfaces we recommend Mirotone Spray Glow furniture polish. It is a clear, lightly perfumed furniture polish for any low gloss surface. Mirotone Spray Glow cleans and protects the wood, is silicone free and has a low sheen. Caution: do not use wax or oil products, especially with a silicone content.
Things to avoid on wooden surfaces include: nail polish remover, synthetic glues, solvents etc, lemon juice and vinegar.
Direct heat from casseroles, tea pots and coffee mugs etc, should be avoided. Hot items placed on anything containing moisture will steam the surface and cause surface blemishes. Frozen items can cause a similar effect. The best rule to follow is: if it’s too hot to hold, it’s too hot for an unprotected wooden surface.
A ‘Bulgomme’ rubber table protector is recommended for use under the table cloths, for dinner parties etc, or when laying heavy or sharp objects down.
Avoid dragging or sliding heavy cabinets across the floor. Lift at all times.
Avoid rocking back on chairs as this will weaken the chair joints.
