Teak wood<\/h1>\n

Cleaning & care<\/span><\/a><\/div>

The correct care<\/h3><\/div><\/div>

Left untreated, teak wood bleaches outdoors after even a short period or turns a shade of silver-grey and later dark-grey and sometimes even light green. This patination occurs due to the sun's UV rays. In order to preserve the vivid brown colour tone,<\/strong> treat your piece of furniture straight after delivery with the Teak Protector<\/a>. That way the wood remains protected and the appearance is preserved. The wood should be dry and clean before application.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If your furniture has already developed a grey patina, the special cleaning agent Teak Hardwood Cleaner<\/a> reestablishes the original appearance.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To protect your teak products from dirt, dust and other stains,<\/strong> seal the surface with Teak Shield<\/a>: Wipe off any dirt with a damp cloth beforehand. If the stain remains, sand it by hand (careful: do not sand with a machine: the heat creates ugly dark patches) and seal your teak furniture afterwards - so coffee, oil stains etc. don't stand a chance.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

OUR Tip:<\/h3>\n

In order to prevent stains, do not place any hot objects<\/strong> on the table's surface!  <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Storage<\/span><\/a><\/div>
<\/div>

the correct storage of teak furniture <\/h3><\/div><\/div>

Untreated teak products<\/strong> are not sensitive to cold, ice and snow. Therefore they can remain outdoors without any problems.<\/strong>
Oiled furniture<\/strong> should be stored undercover. <\/strong>If this is not possible it should be covered with protective coverings.<\/strong> Do not store teak wood products in very warm places to prevent drying-out and unsightly cracks.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
