IKEA TÄRNHULT Custom Wall Panel
Advise for use
The wall panel is made of recycled glass and resins. Unlike a solid wall panel in stone, the surface is non-porous, smooth, and stain-resistant.
Care and maintenance
- For daily cleaning, use a soft cloth dampened in warm water and mild detergent or soap.
- Avoid using cleaning products that contain oils, scouring powders, or abrasives. Prolonged exposure to cleaning solutions may cause permanent damage or discoloration to the wall panel’s surface. Rinse immediately with water to neutralize the effect of exposure to any potentially damaging products.
- Boiling water and splatters from cooking food will not damage the wall panel.
- Stubborn stains can be removed using a combination of 50/50 vinegar and water. Rinse the surface afterward with water and dry with a soft cloth.
- Dried food particles can be removed by using a plastic or wooden scraper. Remove excess material and then clean the surface with a damp cloth to remove any remaining marks.
- The wall panel can withstand most household chemicals. Avoid exposing the wall panel to any strong chemicals and solvents like paint remover, oven grill cleaner or furniture cleaner.
- Never use a steel scourer, scourer pad, scouring agent or similar products since they can scratch the surface.
- Metal marks, fingerprints, and other signs of daily living will show on this material and can be removed using a non-abrasive cleaning product.
