Cleaning
We advise the use of a water based cleaning agent. Some popular cleaning products contain silicone or ammonia; these products are best avoided as they can soften the coating giving it a cloudy appearance over time.
We recommend using Zuster Clean. As manufacturers of contemporary, designer furniture we set out to develop the best cleaning solution for our furniture and have developed a completely natural aromatherapy homecare range that is suitable for all household finishes including timber, laminate, granite or stone, tiles and stainless steel.
Zuster clean is water based with a selection of pure essential oils. The essential oils have been chosen for there beautiful aroma and natural antibacterial and antifungal properties.
Zuster clean can be purchased for $25 from Zuster at 370 Swan Street Ricmond or selected homeware stores and furniture outlets. For more information phone
Direct Sunlight
Zuster furniture is finished with a ultra violet light protector in the spray painting process. This greatly reduces the discolouration that can occur in direct sunlight, although excessive sunlight may cause the timber to deepen over time and we do not recommend item sit in direct sunlight.
Heat
Avoid placing boiling hot dishes or coffee cups on Zuster furniture. Hot plates and cups can burn timber surfaces and coffee and tea can discolour timber.
We advise that you use heat resistant place Matts or coasters. We also advise that coasters and decorator items are periodically moved to avoid shadows.
The furniture should not be positioned over heating vents, in front of gas, oil heaters, open fire places or next to hot electrical appliances such as dryers, kettles or washing machines.
Moisture
All zuster furniture items are finished in a superior, hard wearing lacquer system and will take the occasional spill, however excessive moisture left over time may cause damage to the timber. If you have a household problem of ‘rising damp’ this may also affect your furniture.
Moving Furniture
Please take care when moving all furniture and avoid any scraping or knocking against walls, floors or fixtures. We suggest that you never move furniture alone and bend the knees. When lifting beds Do Not Lift From The Side Rails. It is always advised to lift furniture as close to the corners as possible.
