CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE

Wood Cabinets
For the first 14 to 21 days the finish/topcoat will begin to “cure.” During the curing period, do not attempt to clean the cabinetry. If you clean them before the cabinetry has cured you can permanently mar or damage the surface.

Caring for your wood cabinetry will be much like caring for any fine furniture. When cleaning the cabinets use a “damp” (not wet) cloth rag. Be sure to remove any excess moisture immediately. You may also use small amounts of 100% pure lemon oil applied to a cloth rag and wipe down the cabinets to keep them clean and fresh looking.

Never use abrasives of any kind on your cabinetry. Avoid using any waxes or dusting agents on the finish. Use only 100% pure lemon oil to bring out the beauty of your wood. Never let water sit on or penetrate your cabinetry.

The natural pigments that are in every wood may cause them to “age” or appear different over time. Direct sunlight will often expedite this “aging” process in your cabinets. Try to keep windows shaded so the sun does not directly shine on your cabinets. The areas that are exposed to direct sunlight may need more care and maintenance to retain the luster and beauty of your cabinets.

Therma-foil Cabinets
Caring for your laminate cabinets requires the use of non-abrasive cleaners. You can simply use a damp cloth to wipe them down. You may use a mild cleaner such as Simple Green or similar product to clean the cabinets. DO NOT use solvents or thinners on your cabinets, using those products can cause de-lamination and will void your warranty.
