Cleaning Instructions For Normal Stains

Remove any loose dirt. Prepare a mixture of cold to lukewarm water (do not exceed 100° F) and mild soap. Rub in mixture with a soft brush and allow the mixture to thoroughly soak into the fabric. Rinse well with water and air dry. Do not machine dry.

Cleaning Instructions For Stubborn Stains

Remove as much surface dirt as possible. Soak fabric for 1 hour in a mixture of 1-gallon cold water, 1/2 cup bleach, and 1/2 cup mild soap. Rub in mixture with a soft brush and rinse thoroughly with cold to lukewarm water and air-dry. Never use water over 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not machine dry. Detergents can be used on Outdura without harm; however, it may remove some of the water and stain-resistant properties. If this is important to you, a simple spraying of a post cure fluorocarbon will restore these properties. Please follow the instructions on the package. These sprays can be obtained through a dry cleaning supply store or stores that sell marine related products.

Stone and Tile will last if properly maintained. Clean the table top with a soft clean cloth or sponge. Use warm water and mild dish soap. Rinse with clean water to remove any soap residue. Dry thoroughly and then seal the table top once every 4-6 months will help prevent or reduce any damage that may be caused by the harsh outdoor elements the top is being exposed to. Sealer will penetrate the stone to provide protection from absorption of moisture and stains.

Dekton Care & Maintenance

Below are some tips on keeping your tables and firepit tops in good condition. As soon as a spill occurs, we advise that you clean the area and do not allow the spill to dry on the surface. We advise you use the products we show below. Alternative brands may contain chemicals that may damage your surface.

• Dekton requires very little maintenance. Simply wipe your Dekton surface by using a sponge with soap and warm water on a regular basis to maintain its beauty and shine for years to come. In addition, any PH-balanced general-purpose cleaner may be used.
• For rust or limescale you may use acidic-based cleaners including vinegar and water or other over-the-counter acidic-based cleaners like CLR.
• For smears or streaking you can use Weiman Glass Cooktop Cleaner, or Magic Glass Cooktop Cleaner to clean Dekton surfaces.
• To remove difficult spills, wipe the surface with dish soap and scrub with a Scotch Brite pad and rinse with warm water. For stains that harden as they dry, such as food, gum, nail polish, and paint, remove by gently scraping off of the surface (using a blade or putty knife), and then clean using warm water and soap. Gray marks left by the razor can be wiped away with soap and water or glass cooktop cleaner.
• For wine, coffee, food stains, and fruit juice use common alkaline detergents or oxidants such as dish soap, diluted bleach, and water.
• For wax, shoe polish, rubber marks, dyes, markers, inks, and adhesives, the following solvents can be used: paint thinner, alcohol, or acetone.
• Caution should be exercised in the handling and storage of any of the above chemicals/products. Manufacturers’ instructions should be exercised when using and storing these products.

Caution

• Dekton is extremely resistant to large fluctuations in heat and cold. For safety reasons we always recommend placing a trivet or a hot pad directly between your hot pot/pan and the Dekton surface to prevent burns from the heat that may transfer from the hot item to the Dekton countertop surface.
• Avoid exposing your Dekton surface to strong chemicals and solvents for an extended period of time. Although Dekton is stain proof, it is never advised to leave these cleaners on your Dekton surface for an extended period of time.
• Always avoid contact with your Dekton surface by hydrofluoric acid.
• Although Dekton is extremely scratch-resistant, we always recommend the use of a cutting board for two reasons.
  • Knives or metal household utensils will leave grey marks when cutting directly on the Dekton surface. These marks are called “metal transfer” and can be removed with cleaners as noted above; however, it is a lot easier to simply cut on a cutting board.
  • Dekton can dull your knives and cooking utensils and it is wise to protect the investment that you have in these items.

The faux stone tabletop is a man-made composite lightweight stone. It is virtually maintenance free; simply clean it with water and mild detergent. Red wine or juice should be wiped away at once to prevent permanent staining. Never use harsh cleaners; avoid putting hot items, such as pots and pans directly onto the table surface.

• Clean with mild soap and water
• Red wine and juice should be wiped away immediately
• Never use harsh cleaners
• Avoid putting hot items on surface

Worry-free wood is virtually maintenance free due to the fact that it has exceptional resistance to fading, moisture, insects, splintering and other common outcomes from environmental stress that one observes with treated lumber or wood fiber composite products. It just needs occasional washing with soap and water to remove dirt and debris if desired. Do not leave empty glasses on worry-free wood surface under direct sunlight as this may cause sun damage to the surface.

• Wash with mild soap and water
• Do not leave empty glasses on surface in direct sunlight, this may cause damage

Eucalyptus hardwood furniture is unique with its beautiful wood grain accent and color. It performs very similar to teak wood.

To maintain original-like look, use a soft bristle brush or sponge to wash the furniture with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach, pressure washers or use an abrasive brass brush as it may cause damage and discoloration. We recommend semi-annual application of Semco Teak Sealer (SEM-10324), which is readily available from multiple online sources. Follow product instructions for best results.

Commercial teak sealer or cleaner can also be used to restore the beauty and moisture of the wood. Follow product instructions for best results.

To clean your indoor/outdoor rugs, use a spray bottle and combine 2% dish soap to 98% cold water and mix well (do not shake). Using the spray bottle, apply the detergent and water solution to the entire top side of the rug. Let the solution sit for a few minutes and then rinse using your garden hose until the water runs clear, and your rug is clean. Do not use any harsh chemical cleaners or power washers on your rug as this may speed-up the fading and affect its durability.
