Maintenance

• HOW SHOULD I TAKE CARE OF MY US & COUTUMES PRODUCTS?
  
  Our products are either finished with hard oil, varnish, paint or lacquer. We recommend you clean them with a damp rag as much as you need. Do not use wax, lemon oil or other commercial furniture cleaning agents. You can use a bit of soft soap like dishwashing soap for strong and hard to remove stains. That's it. We choose our finish products so they present no harm to health, are environment friendly as much as possible and DO NOT need to be reapplied.
