Solid timber and timber veneer furniture

DO

  • Use tablecloths, table runners and coasters to help protect surfaces from scratching. 
  • Dust once a week using a soft cloth or similar duster.
  • Only use Freedom recommended care products as many supermarket polishes and waxes contain high levels of silicon and petroleum distillate which can damage the surface. 
  • Polish your furniture every 3 to 6 months, making sure the surface is free from dust before you start.

DON’T

  • Avoid placing hot or wet items directly on the surface as they can leave marks which are difficult to remove.
  • Avoid direct sunlight, as this will cause colour change. If the furniture is in direct sunlight, move items like vases around to avoid spotting.
  • Avoid applying too much polish as this will build up and need to be removed with a wood-cleaning product.
