WOOD CARE Always use felt pads under all articles to prevent discoloration or softening of the lacquer. Plastic and rubber bases on items can discolor wood. Wipe up spills immediately and avoid common hazards such as hot dishes harsh solvents and abrasives. Cleaning should be done with a soft lint free cotton cloth dampened with water. LEATHER CARE Leather surfaces should be dusted regularly with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid using saddle soap or other cleaners. Suede surfaces should only be cleaned with a dry stiff brush.
