Dining furniture made with powder-coated metal is both stylish and durable, but to keep it looking new and lasting longer, proper care is essential. Here are expert tips:
✅ 1. REGULAR CLEANING
Wipe down weekly with a soft damp cloth to remove dust and grime.
Use mild dish soap in warm water for deeper cleans.
Avoid abrasive pads or scouring powders, which can scratch the finish.
✅ 2. PREVENT RUST & CORROSION
Dry surfaces immediately after cleaning.
Place furniture away from direct contact with humidifiers, heating vents, or exterior doors that may expose it to moisture.
For extra protection, apply a clear car wax or metal protectant to the powder-coated areas every 3–6 months.
✅ 3. PROTECT THE SURFACE
Use placemats and coasters to prevent scratches and spills.
Avoid dragging objects across the metal legs or frames.
Attach felt pads or rubber feet under chair legs to prevent floor scratches and reduce metal-on-metal wear.
✅ 4. HANDLE SPILLS PROMPTLY
Wipe up spills immediately to prevent staining or damage, especially with acidic liquids like vinegar, juice, or wine.
For sticky messes, gently rub with a microfiber cloth dipped in soapy water, then rinse and dry.
✅ 5. INSPECT HARDWARE PERIODICALLY
Check screws and joints on chairs and tables every few months.
Tighten loose bolts to keep the structure sturdy and safe.
✅ 6. AVOID DIRECT SUNLIGHT & EXTREME TEMPERATURES
Prolonged sunlight can fade painted or coated surfaces.
If used near windows, consider UV-blocking window film or curtains to protect the finish.
✅ 7. STORAGE TIP (FOR MULTI-SEASONAL USE)
If using the furniture outdoors during summer, bring it indoors or cover it with a water-resistant furniture cover during harsh weather or winter months.
