Restaurant Table Care Maintenance Instructions

To protect your investment and ensure the longevity of your handcrafted furniture, please adhere to the following maintenance protocols. Proper care is essential for aesthetic durability and is required to maintain your manufacturer’s warranty.

Section 1: Premium Wood Tabletop Care

High-performance finishes require specific care to avoid clouding or stripping.

General Daily Cleaning

  • The Gold Standard: Use a soft microfiber cloth lightly dampened with a solution of mild dish soap and warm water.

  • Drying is Key: Always follow a damp wipe with a clean, dry cloth. Never allow moisture to "air dry" on wood surfaces.

  • Acceptable Cleaners: Standard wood-specific cleaners (like Murphy’s Oil Soap) are generally safe. Always test a small, hidden area before a full application.

Advanced Finish Care (UV Surfaces)

  • Film Removal: Some commercial cleaners can leave a hazy residue on UV-finished wood. If buildup occurs, use Fantastik or Formula 409 specifically to strip the film and restore the original sheen.

The "Never Use" List (Chemical Warning)

To prevent permanent finish degradation, DO NOT use:

  • Ammonia-based products (including Windex).

  • Degreasers, bleach, or harsh abrasives.

  • Scouring pads or steel wool.

Preventative Maintenance

  • Immediate Spill Response: Wipe liquids as quickly as possible. Standing water can penetrate the finish over time and cause "white rings" or grain swelling.

  • Surface Protection: Use coasters or felt pads for sugar caddies, salt shakers, and decorative centerpieces to prevent "micro-scratching" from rough-bottomed ceramics.

  • Climate Control: Wood is organic. Maintain stable indoor humidity and avoid placing tables directly under HVAC vents or in constant, direct sunlight to prevent warping and cracking.

Section 2: Stone & Solid Surfaces

Material Cleaning Protocol Special Requirements
Natural Stone (Granite, Marble) Use pH-neutral (pH 7) cleaners and a soft cloth. Avoid lemon, vinegar, or acidic cleaners. Reseal every 6–12 months.
Quartz Mild soap and water; pH-neutral cleaners. Non-porous; no sealing required.
Solid Surface (Corian) Mild soap, neutral cleaners, or ammonia-based cleaners. Disinfect with a 1:1 bleach/water solution. Non-porous.

Section 3: Table Base Maintenance

Powder-Coated Bases (Textured/Hammer-Tone)

  1. Dusting: Use a soft-bristle dry brush to remove debris from the texture.

  2. Stains: Use a damp cloth with mild soap for grease or scuff marks.

Polished Powder-Coated Bases

  1. Wipe Down: Use a damp microfiber cloth for daily cleaning.

  2. Repair: If the finish is chipped, apply touch-up paint immediately to seal the metal and prevent oxidation (rust).

Wood Bases

  • Treat similarly to tabletops: Wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid saturating the base where it meets the floor.

📌 Warranty Note

All furniture is designed for indoor use only unless explicitly rated for outdoors. Failure to follow the cleaning and environmental guidelines listed above will result in the voiding of the manufacturer's warranty.

RECOMMENDED FURNITURE POLISH FOR COMMERCIAL USE:

For a professional-grade finish, we recommend using a high-quality polish like Howard Feed N Wax.
