If you are looking at revamping your worn furniture or you have just beautifully restored some furniture, then you would want to take care of it and ensure its longevity. Read our top tips to look after your revamped furniture.
Hand Painted
Hand painted furniture is a beautiful option for a customised and unique finish to your furniture. This style offers a finish – using antique, colour washing, distressing or rubbing back techniques to show the natural textures of the furniture. Take care of your hand painted furniture by using coasters underneath glasses, placemats under plates and if anything spills ensure to clean immediately to avoid staining.
Gloss
Glossy polyurethane furniture fits perfectly into modern style homes for a sleek and contemporary finish with seamless edges, which is very popular at the moment. This is a cost effective and durable choice perfect for kitchen cabinetry, benches and if you have kids. To ensure longevity of gloss polyurethane do not leave hot items on the surface as it can cause damage. It’s a thick finish but it’s not invincible. Also, avoid using harsh and abrasive cleaning products as they can scratch and damage the surface.
Timber
Opting for timber furniture will give your home a warm and natural feel. It’s a popular choice in kitchen cabinetry and furniture as it offers many design options to suit everyone’s home. If spills occur clean them up immediately and avoid placing timber near heating, air conditioners or direct sunlight as it can cause damage to the timber.
