• Clean any spills immediately to prevent permanent surface staining or damage. Blot any liquid spills with a clean, dry cloth to avoid spreading of the spill to the rest of the table. Clean your surface with a soft, clean cloth or sponge. Mix a solution of warm clean water and mild dish soap to remove any surface dirt or mild spills. Rinse all soap solution off of the tabletop and dry completely to avoid water spots. Regularly cleaning the surface will aid in a longer lasting product.
• Do not use petroleum-based or abrasive cleaning products. Do not use any harsh brushes when cleaning the surface.
• Do not slide products across the surface to avoid permanent scratching and damage.
• Always use protective mats such as coasters or placemats when eating on an surface. These protective products will help absorb sweating on cool beverages and will block out any heat rings from appearing beneath a warm mug or plate. When placing hot dishes on an surface, always use mats or hot pads.
• Surface must be covered at all times when not in use. Cover your product with an outdoor furniture cover when not in use to protect it from the elements. Store your product indoors during winter months. Avoiding extreme cold temperatures will prevent cracking of the tabletop.
