MAINTENANCE
Galvanized steel
DAY TO DAY CLEANING
Regularly and after every use
Clean with lukewarm water and a mild detergent or
Extremis Multi Cleaner.
REPARING DAMAGED PARTS WITH ZINC SPRAY
When damaged
Hot dip galvanization is the most durable way of
protecting metal against rusting. If the zinc coating
is damaged, the exposed metal can rust. This can
easily be touched up with zinc paint that automati-
50
cally has the same colour and is readily available in
shops. Zinc spray forms a quick drying, self healing
and flexible coating that helps stop corrosion.
Wood
DAY TO DAY CLEANING
Clean regularly and after every use
Wood doesn't need much maintenance, but the
better you treat it, the longer it will last. Cleaning
the wood regularly and immediately after use with
a damp cloth will prevent fluids from penetrating
deep into the wood. An oiled table will absorb liquids
less quickly, keeping it clean for longer. To remove
stubborn remains of dirt, simply use a stiff brush and
some water. Be careful not to permanently damage
the fibres. For this reason, never ever use a high-
-pressure cleaner to clean wood.
CLEANING
Once or twice a year
Depending on the weather conditions, wood needs
a descent polish at least once a year. We would
recommend to do this before Spring and before
Winter, if your furniture is outside the whole year
round. Pick one of those humid, cloudy days, as it
is better for the moisture level in the wood to dry out
slowly after cleaning. For a thorough cleaning, we
can recommend our Extremis Wood Cleaner. This
is a bio-degradable cleansing shampoo for wooden
furniture. The product removes grey discolouration,
green deposits and dirt. Should any cracks appear,
you can simply sand them down by hand using 80
grit sandpaper.
OILING
Once a year
You are free to protect your wood from UV, inclement
weather and stains. Needless to say we strongly
recommend to do this once a year. Extremis Wood
Protector is a 100% natural product based on linseed
oil. It is colourless, but the wood will be darker
after this treatment. 0. Remove all residues of old
applications.
MACHINE SANDING
Only every 2 to 4 years
After a few years, there will be little cracks and ma-
ybe some warping in your wood. This is completely
normal, because wood is a natural, living material.
Solid wood has the great benefit that you can sand
away the top layer to make the surface smooth and
flat again. You can do this every two to four years
with a hand-held sander. Do it on a dry day. Use 80-
grit sandpaper for this.
