Here are some simple tips to ensure your Springwater Woodcraft piece provides years of enjoyment & functionality.
Regular Care:
~ Dust your furniture regularly with a lint-free cloth. Pledge® furniture polish works well on most finishes.
~ Lemon oil, tung oil, antiquing oil and other protective finishes can be used on stained surfaces. For a longer lasting finish, use
paste finishing wax. Minwax® offers a variety of suitable protective coatings; visit www.minwax.com for information.
~ Avoid using polishes that contain petroleum products.
~ Always avoid putting furniture in direct sunlight as it may bleach (fade) the finish.
~ Always be sure to use felt discs, placemats, coasters, etc. when putting lamps, glasses, hot objects, etc. on tabletops.
~ Water should not be left standing on furniture.
~ Wood grains will always accept finishes differently. This is a natural occurence giving each piece its own character and
uniqueness.
~ Maintaining consistent humidity conditions helps to reduce risks of warping, shrinking and cracking.
Cracking & Warping:
Because our furniture is made from solid wood, it's natural that it may develop small cracks, splits and / or warps caused by
shrinking and / or expanding. Despite our use of low moisture content (8% - 10%) kiln dried Eastern White Pine, imperfections
are still inevitable. These are not defects, but rather a natural behaviour of the pine as it becomes acclimatized to its environment;
due to contrasting moisture levels in the air, wood will acclimatize differently in different regions of the country. Small imperfections
also accentuate the uniqueness of your individual piece!
If splits develop that are large enough to affect the esthetic or structural integrity of the piece, please contact us and we will be
happy to either arrange an exchange or issue a partial credit, depending on the problem.
