Chrome

Glossy chrome plating consists of several layers. The outermost and visible layer consists of a thin layer of chrome. The underlying layer, which adheres to the base material, is nickel. The chrome plated surface does not alter with time and will always have a mirror gloss appearance.

Normal cleaning and maintenance

Furniture with chrome plated surfaces can be wiped with a damp cloth soaked in warm water or a mild detergent. Wipe the surface with a dry cloth after to avoid streaks and limescale stains.

Special cleaning

If normal cleaning products are not sufficient, the surface can be cleaned with household rubbing alcohol.

Special Consideration

Water can cause light rusting on chrome plated surfaces. We recommend using a suitable metal polish such as Brasso or Autosol® to remove rust on chrome-plated surfaces.

Stainless steel

Stainless steel has a high chromium content which gives the steel its resistant surface (corrosion resistant properties).

Normal cleaning and maintenance

Stainless steel furniture can be wiped with a damp cloth soaked in warm water or a mild detergent. Wipe the surface with a dry cloth after to avoid streaks and limescale stains.

Special cleaning

If normal cleaning products are not sufficient, the surface can be cleaned with household rubbing alcohol.

Special consideration

Minor rust stains may appear on the stainless steel surface over time. The minor rust stains on the surface are often caused by metal or iron particles from other objects - shoe buckles, bags with metal fittings. In most cases, small rust stains and minor scratches can be removed by sanding the surface with a very fine sanding sponge intended for metal. Remember to always follow the direction of the steel grain when sanding. Note that chlorine based cleaners must not be used on steel as they will cause rust. Make sure to wipe the steel with a dry cloth after washing the floor to avoid stains on the steel

 

Powder coated steel

Powder coating gives the furniture a durable and uniform surface.

Normal cleaning and maintenance

Furniture with a powder coated surface is wiped with a damp cloth soaked in warm water or a mild detergent. Wipe the surface with a dry cloth after to avoid streaks and limescale stains.

Special Consideration

Do not use solvents, sharp objects or abrasive cleaners on powder coated surfaces.
