​Cleaning & Dusting: Use only neutral pH cleaners. Avoid harsh or abrasive products, including disinfectant wipes, ammonia-based cleaners, or silicone sprays. These can degrade or cloud waterborne finishes over time. Dust regularly with care. A dry, lint-free microfiber cloth or soft duster works best. Avoid feather dusters or rough fabrics that can scratch the surface.

Spills & Sticky Spots: Wipe spills immediately. Waterborne finishes resist moisture, but standing liquids—especially alcohol, oils, or water—can penetrate and damage the wood beneath if left too long. Clean sticky spots gently with a lightly dampened microfiber or non-abrasive cloth with warm water. Dry immediately with a clean, dry cloth to avoid water absorption.

Surface Protection: Avoid direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Prolonged UV exposure can fade finishes and discolor wood; rapid shifts in temperature or humidity can cause cracking or warping. Protect surfaces from heat and scratches. Use coasters, trivets, and felt pads under decor, dishes, or electronics to prevent imprinting, scratches, or heat damage.​
