PRODUCT CARE
We recommend using a soft rag, either dry or wet. When needed, use ph-balanced liquid soap especially formulated for wood, diluted in water. Do not use abrasive sponges, as they may leave scratches. Avoid using acidic products, solvents and products containing ammonia. Avoid exposure to sunlight as this may permanently discolour the surface.
Periodic maintenance and cleaning allows the product to keep its original look and lengthens the duration of its performance.
