Caring for Your Painted Furniture

Please treat your newly finished piece of furniture as you would a fine fabric or antique - with respect!

You will continue to enjoy the look and feel of your finely finished furniture for years to come.

·         All water-based and oil-based furniture finishes need 21 - 28 days to cure (or even longer if there are several layers of wax); treat it with care during this period and avoid excess handling.

·          Do not place water glasses, sharp or scratchy objects on it.

·          When cleaning, use a soft dry cloth.

·          To obtain best results when removing unwanted stains, use a slightly damp cloth or chamois with mild soap and water; do not use any abrasive products or tools.

·          Avoid all contact with liquid furniture polishes and spray polishes.

·          Avoid excessive water; wax is by nature water resistant but will spot if not wiped immediately.

·          Use placemats and coasters on tabletops.

·          Wax is alcohol soluble and should not be used in bar areas.

·          A moderate climate is best; avoid extreme heat or air-conditioning, as well as excessive moisture or dryness.

I hope this gives you some tips on taking care of your painted furniture!
