Use a dry, clean cloth to dust your furniture weekly and help maintain its lustre and prevent staining.
For Maintenance and Care using oil: Please remember that when you oil your set for the first time the natural colour of the wood will come out (Some sets will have natural flames/grains that will come out). The colour may darken or have a wet appearance all depending of the type of wood.
For the first 6 months your set needs to be oiled every month with Woodoc Patio Oil or any other treatment oil with a wax base. Important note: Use oil that is colourless. Thereafter the set needs to be oiled every 2nd month.
Since wood is living and breathing, it expand and contract due to weather conditions and we strongly recommend tightening bolts and screws during the winter months.
Any other varnish products can also be used, please refer to their product application instructions.
All sealants and varnishes will have tendencies to crack and peal, however Rystix Sealants allow for more movement of the wood, therefore it should crack and peal less than most traditional varnishes.
