CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Cleaning table tops with high-pressure laminate
Our high-quality HPL finishes fulfil the requirements
of DIN 438. To clean, rinse the surface with warm
water and then dry it with a paper towel or soft
cloth. If any soiling remains, use a normal household
cleaning agent, e.g. washing powder, liquid or
solid soap. This should not contain any abrasive
ingredients, as they could lead to changes in the
gloss level and scratches. We recommend leaving
the cleaning agent to work as required depending
on how dirty the surface is. Then wash off with
water and dry. Remove any remnants of the
cleaning agent to prevent streaks from developing.
Please do not use wax-based furniture polish or
cleaning agents, as they are inclined to build up in
the texture of the HPL finish and result in a sticky,
unattractive layer that attracts dirt.
Cleaning table tops with oak or walnut veneer
Clean regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth. With
normal use, it is enough to remove dirt from the
surface once or twice a year with a damp cloth. Use
water mixed with a small amount of commercially
available mild detergent to dampen the cloth.
Then, while the surface is still damp, wipe it with
a soft, clean cloth in the same direction as the
wood grain. Avoid rubbing hard, as this can cause
differences in finish to occur with matte surfaces.
After lengthy and heavy use, the lacquered surface
can be cleaned with a commercially available
furniture polish. When doing so, please note the
manufacturer's instructions for use and check
compatibility on a small hidden area of your fina flex
table system.
