Specific Maintenance Details
FSC Timber
Clean with a sti brush once per year, especially in more
exposed locations, in order to prevent a verdigris type
build up on the timber surface. Ideally this should be
completed in early spring. During the cleaning stage,
all exposed timber surfaces should be inspected for

splits and splinters. Any splinters and grati should
be removed and the surface sanded with 100 grit
sandpaper in order to remove any uneven / sharp edges
or surfaces.
During the first few months after installation the tannin
naturally occurring in the timber may leach out and
cause a brown staining on the bases. This may be
removed with a light solution of household bleach and
water.
Stainless Steel (polished stainless steel only)
Clean as required, but at least every three months, using
a stainless steel polish and a lint free cloth. To remove
ground in dirt, a stainless steel finishing pad may be
required.
Galvanised
For general cleaning using a damp cloth and warm
soapy water only. Scourers and abrasive cleaners are
NOT suitable for these types of finish and may damage
them. Before using any cleaning agents to remove
grati etc. try on a small, inconspicuous area first to
avoid causing more unsightly damage.
Repairs
FSC Timber
For light damage, please see section on specific
maintenance details above. For instances of heavy
damage, the timber item should be replac
Stainless Steel
Light damage (surface scratches etc.) can be removed
using an emery pad (240 grit) and freeing oil such as
‘WD40’. Care should be taken to follow the direction
of the brushing grain. It is recommended that a trial
repair be carried out on an unimportant surface first. No
corrosive cleaners or other abrasives should be used.
Any contamination, particularly carbon steel scus from
vehicles, should be quickly removed to avoid corrosion.
Galvanised
For light damage to hot dipped galvanised finishes
repair using a high performance cold galvanising zinc
spray (70% zinc or above). Spray application should
be carried out in accordance with approved methods
detailed by the product manufacturer. Please note that
it is advisable to use professional painters to achieve
best results when touching up larger areas.
Heavy Damage
In the event of serious damage to any component,
replacements should be ordered from Factory Furniture
Ltd. In this event (or if the product needs to be
disassembled for any reason), please contact Factory
Furniture for detailed technical advice.
