Timber

As timber is sealed with a protective coating, the only maintenance is to regularly wipe timber with damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Oils or other polishes are not recommended. Do not wet down surfaces or leave spills to sit on timber surfaces. Abrasive products are not recommended. Impacts against the timber are not recommended and will cause damage for which we accept no responsibility.
