General Cabinet Care Information
It is important to keep the cabinet surfaces dry.
For best results, use a "blotting" action rather than a wiping motion when cleaning your cabinets.
Areas of quick temperature changes and excessive moisture, such as bathtubs, showers and oven ranges, can be harmful to the cabinet finish and overall cabinet stability.
Most of the suggestions below are simple, common sense practices that you probably already know and follow. We just want to make sure that you avoid potential damage by following our simple guidelines.
Initial Cleaning After Installation
To remove dust, use a soft, lint-free cotton cloth to wipe down all exterior and interior surfaces.
Basic Cleaning
Clean as needed with a soft, lint-free cotton cloth. Use a mild detergent or soap, and warm water.
Dry surfaces immediately with a soft, lint-free cotton cloth.
Avoid using a dish cloth or sponge to clean cabinet surfaces. Harsh detergent residues may harm finishes.
Avoid ammonia-based cleaners and soaps with dye.
TIP: Food spills and grease will come off more easily if they are removed promptly.>
TIP: Do not leave printed materials (newspapers, magazines, etc.) on the cabinet surface. The printing ink can bleed into the cabinet finish.
Wipe Spills Promptly
Wipe up spills and water spots immediately with a lint-free cotton cloth so moisture is not absorbed into the cabinetry.
Check the areas around the sink and dishwasher to make sure that water and detergents do not dry on the cabinet surface.
Avoid Excessive Moisture
Avoid draping wet or damp dish towels over doors of the sink base cabinets.
Do not attach towel racks to the interior of cabinet doors.
Place coffee makers so that the steam is directed away from cabinet surfaces.
Use trays under potted plants to catch excess water.
TIP: Beyer Cabinet finishes are designed for indoor use. They are not intended to withstand exterior conditions such as extreme moisture variation, water exposure or immersion, heat or freezing or prolonged UV exposure. Avoid Excessive Heat.
Avoid placing small kitchen appliances where the heat is directed onto cabinet surfaces.
Always protect wood surfaces by using hot pads under hot items.
Avoid Abrasives
Never use scouring pads, steel wool, wire brushes or powdered cleaners.
Do not allow oven cleaner to touch any part of the cabinet.
Avoid sliding objects across the cabinet surface.
Be careful with knives and other sharp objects that can damage the cabinet surface.
TIP: When in doubt of a cleaner's suitability, don't use it. Harsh cleaners and detergents may scratch and penetrate the surface, allowing food or moisture to enter and cause deterioration of the finish. Never leave a cloth moistened with cleaners on a cabinet surface for any length of time.
Hardware Care
Use a mild soap and warm water to clean door/drawer knobs and pulls.
Thoroughly dry hardware with a clean, soft cloth. Buff with another clean, dry cloth.
