St Martin Outdoor Round Extension Ceramic Dining Table

·  When you receive your piece, we recommend you examine your ceramic in good light to establish if there are any potential problems.
·  Please note, you don't always need to remove all dirt or stains. They may have historic interest, or it may be impossible to remove them without damaging the piece.
·  We recommend before cleaning a whole piece, test clean a small area to make sure you won't damage it.
·  Most ceramics can be handled without gloves, as long as hands are clean and dry, otherwise your fingers may leave behind a residue.
·  Do not use a dishwasher.
·  Avoid using household bleaches or proprietary cleaning products as they can cause irreversible damage. 

·        Wipe up spills immediately using a clean dry cloth. 
·  Clean regularly using a soft, damp cloth and a diluted solution of mild detergent and warm water. Dry with a soft cloth. 
·  Avoid bleach or using any detergent containing sulphuric or hydrochloric acid. 
·  Protect metal tabletops by using coasters and placemats to prevent marks, stains and scratches. 
·  Do not use steel wool or scouring pads as these will scratch and damage the metal surface. 
·  Please note, aluminium will naturally oxidise, forming a thin oxide layer on its surface, which gives this material its excellent anti-corrosion properties. The natural reaction of oxidisation will cause a slight black residue on the cloth when you clean your furniture. This is perfectly normal and not a sign of defect. 
·  Excessive use of cleaning agents on vintage look finishes may have a detrimental effect and should be used with caution.
