How to care for your custom cabinets
Clean and Care
For your Cabinets
Temperature Control
Keep cabinets in a temperature-controlled environment with minimal exposure to humidity. Oftentimes, changes to cabinets, including joint expansion, panel shrinkage and warpage, are accelerated in humid environments.
Spills
Clean spills quickly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth. We advise against using detergents, soap pads, or steel wool. These can damage your cabinetry. Any type of harsh abrasive will scar the wood’s finish.
Dusting
Dust cabinets often with a soft, lint-free cloth. You can dampen the cloth slightly with water or a spray- type dust remover.
Polishing
We recommend that you clean and polish cabinets at least once each year. Finish by adding a light coat of quality furniture polish.
It’s best to avoid the use of polishes or paste wax that contains silicone. These products cause wax build up that is difficult to remove. The resulting residue tends to attract dust.
