Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and preserve the aesthetic appearance of your Lorell Desk Shell, adhere to the following maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe all surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents, as these can damage the laminate finish.
• Spills: Clean up any spills immediately to prevent staining or absorption into the laminate material.
• Protection: Utilize coasters for beverages and desk pads for writing or computer equipment. This will protect the desk surface from scratches, heat marks, and liquid damage.
