Care and Cleaning
Wood Furniture
•As with any smooth surface, avoid using abrasive cleaners as
they will scratch the surface. Wipe the wood surface regularly to
prevent buildup of soap and scum.
•To protect against scratches, use felt, leather, or cork under all
items placed on the wood surface. Do not expose wood furniture
to direct sunlight, drying heat sources, or dampness.
•Dust frequently with a soft cloth in the direction of the grain. Use
only products specifically made for cleaning wood. Avoid using
oily polishes or waxes, or products containing silicone. Blot spills
immediately with a soft, damp cloth.
•Every six months remove soil buildup by rubbing with a soft
cloth dampened in a 50/50 solution of warm water and an
ammonia-free detergent. Wipe clean with a cloth dampened in
warm water and then wipe dry.
•Consider the following cleaners for cleaning your wood furniture:
Orange GloTM Wood Cleaner and Polish, and Scott’s Liquid GoldTM
Wood Cleaner and Preservative.
