Specific Maintenance Details

FSC Timber

Clean with a stiff brush once per year, especially in more 
exposed locations, in order to prevent a verdigris type 
build up on the timber surface. Ideally this should be 
completed in early spring. During the cleaning stage, 
all exposed timber surfaces should be inspected for 
splits and splinters. Any splinters and graffiti should 
be removed and the surface sanded with 100 grit 
sandpaper in order to remove any uneven / sharp edges 
or surfaces. 

During the first few months after installation the tannin 
naturally occurring in the timber may leach out and 
cause a brown staining on the bases. This may be 
removed with a light solution of household bleach and 
water.

Stainless Steel  

(polished stainless steel only)

Clean as required, but at least every three months, using 
a stainless steel polish and a lint free cloth. To remove 
ground in dirt, a stainless steel finishing pad may be 
required.

Galvanised

For general cleaning using a damp cloth and warm 
soapy water only. Scourers and abrasive cleaners are 
NOT suitable for this type of finish and may damage it. 
Before using any cleaning agents to remove graffiti etc. 
try on a small, inconspicuous area first to avoid causing 
more unsightly damage.
