Maintaining an extendable dining table from ARV Furniture requires proper care to keep it functional and looking great for years. Here are some useful tips:
1. Regular Cleaning
Wipe the table daily with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris.
Use mild soap and water for deeper cleaning; avoid harsh chemicals.
Dry the surface immediately with a clean cloth to prevent moisture damage.
2. Protect the Surface
Always use placemats, tablecloths, or coasters to prevent scratches, heat marks, or stains.
Avoid placing hot items directly on the surface—use trivets or heat-resistant pads.
If your table has a glass top, clean it with a non-abrasive glass cleaner to maintain clarity.
3. Take Care of the Extendable Mechanism
Open and close the extension mechanism gently to avoid strain on the joints.
Periodically apply lubricant (such as silicone spray) to the sliding tracks to keep them smooth.
Ensure no dust, crumbs, or debris accumulate in the extension mechanism to prevent jamming.
4. Maintain the Wood Finish
If the table has a wood veneer or solid wood finish, polish it occasionally with a wood-friendly polish to enhance its shine.
Keep the table away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and warping.
Maintain a stable indoor temperature and humidity level to avoid wood expansion or contraction.
5. Store Extension Leaves Properly
If the extra leaves are removable, store them flat in a dry, temperature-controlled space to prevent warping.
Avoid placing heavy items on stored leaves to maintain their original shape.
6. Prevent Damage
Avoid dragging heavy objects across the table surface.
Tighten any loose screws or bolts in the table frame periodically.
If spills occur, wipe them immediately to prevent staining or warping.
Following these tips will keep your extendable dining table from ARV Furniture in top condition for years.
