To maintain the beautiful finish on your Ligo furniture an occasional application of paste wax is strongly recommended. In dryer climates we recommend more frequent applications to prevent drying and cracking on the surface. When placing extremely hot or cold items on the surface, a place mat is recommended to protect the finish. Scratches or chips in the painted finish and clear lacquer will occur with normal wear. These may be repaired with a light sanding and a complimenting finish available at most home improvement stores. Wipe up spills quickly. Avoid prolonged contact with liquids.
Vacuum fabric regularly using a soft brush and low suction to remove dust and grit. Wipe gently using a soft damp cloth. Remove spills immediately using a sponge or soft cloth. Treat stains as soon as possible. Strictly follow directions of commercial fabric cleaners. Do not scrub or us abrasive cloths. Do not expose to direct sunlight, intense heat, or wet conditions. Do not rub hard in one spot. Do not dry clean. Do not machine wash. Do not use detergent solvents.
Always remember to use coasters under drinking glasses. Many beverages and foods contain acids that will etch or dull stone surfaces. Do not place hot items directly onto stone surface. Use trivets under hot dishes and place mats under china, silverware, or other items that can scratch the surface. Marble is best cleaned with stone soap(available at most hardware stores) or a mild dishwashing detergent and warm water. After washing buff dry with soft cloth to prevent streaking and water spots. Blot up spills immediately. Stubborn stains can be removed by placing a cloth soaked in a mild bleach and water solution on the stain. Always use caution when using this procedure as too much bleach will permanently damage the marble color. If desired a non-yellowing car wax may be used to protect the surface and prevent water spotting. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, tub and tile cleaners, grout cleaners, etc.. DO NOT use lemon juice, vinegar, or other cleaners that contain acid.
Clean veneer tops as you would laminate or solid wood tops using a damp cloth or polish with commercial furniture polish such as Pledge.
