Care Instructions
1. Routine Cleaning
Regularly clean the wooden surface using a soft cloth to avoid scratches. For more thorough cleaning, use a wood cleaner or mild soap solution, followed by drying with a clean cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the wood finish.
2. Sealing and Polishing
To maintain the wood's natural beauty, consider applying a wood sealant or furniture polish every 6 months. This will help protect the table from moisture, UV rays, and dirt accumulation.
3. Protection from Weather
If used outdoors, it's important to cover the table with a waterproof cover or store it in a sheltered area during inclement weather (rain, snow, etc.) to prevent wood damage, warping, or discoloration. For outdoor use, regularly check for signs of weathering and address any issues early.
4. Preventing Scratches and Damage
Avoid placing heavy or sharp objects directly on the table without protection (such as placemats or tablecloths). Use coasters or trivets under hot items like pots, pans, or mugs to avoid heat damage.
