Teak Root
- Sponge product with the foam of a water-and-dish-washing-liquid mixture. Over time, the wood will absorb more of the soap making the timber repellent to marks. This treatment does not guarantee against stains.
- Avoid letting water stand on the surface of teak furniture.
- Avoid placing teak tables directly on carpets. The natural oils can cause damage and stains to the carpet fibre.
Important to note: Continued exposure to sun and rain will turn the timber a beautiful, silver-grey patina. This weathering process will happen quite quickly once the teak product is placed outside. However, within a couple of months, the timber should settle and stabilise.
Glass
- Wipe with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT use scour pads.
- Do not use harsh chemicals or detergents.
- Use newspaper to polish the glass and prevent streaking.
Important to note: Glass is fragile and can crack, chip or break if mishandled. Changes in temperatures and humidity can also cause expansion and contraction of glass resulting in cracks.
