5. Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and appearance of your solid oak roll top desk.

• Cleaning: Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with a mild wood cleaner, then immediately wipe dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
• Wood Care: Periodically apply a quality wood polish or wax to maintain the finish and protect the wood. Follow the product manufacturer's instructions.
• Environmental Conditions: Avoid placing the desk in direct sunlight or near heat sources (e.g., radiators, vents) to prevent warping, fading, or cracking of the wood. Maintain consistent humidity levels in the room.

• Drawer Glides: If drawers become stiff, apply a small amount of silicone spray or paraffin wax to the metal glides for smoother operation.
