cleaning lacquered surfaces:
For best results, use a damp soft cloth with mild soap and water. Do not dry wipe lacquered surfaces. Avoid harsh household cleaners and abrasives. The following cleaning agents should not be used under any circumstances:
Scouring and abrasive agents (abrasive powders, scouring pads, steel wool)
Polish, washing powder, furniture cleaner, bleach
Detergents with strong acids and acidic salts
Steam cleaning equipment
Always check the active ingredients of your cleaners for potentially harmful chemicals. Do not use acetone, ammonia, amylacetate, benzene, butyl acetate, butyl alcohol, caustic soda, cellusolve, chlorinated solvents, chloroform, cresols/phenols, dichloromethane, ethylacetate, glacial acetate acid, halogenated solvents, methyl alcohol, methyl ethyl keytone, thinners, toluene, or xylene.
If chemical or staining liquids are spilled on a lacquered surface, wipe it off immediately and wash the surface with soapy water, rinsing several times to eliminate any residue.
cleaning melamine
Wipe away fingerprints, grease, food and other substances as soon as you notice them for the best results and the simplest cleanup. A damp sponge or white cloth is enough to do the job most of the time, as long as you work quickly.
For substances that cannot be cleaned with plain water, apply a dot of dish soap to a damp sponge or white cloth and scrub the area gently. Rinse the cloth or sponge and wipe the area again; then dry it off.
Remove stubborn substances such as grease or sticker residue by applying a citrus solvent with the tip of a cotton swab. Wipe the solvent away after a few minutes; then rinse with a damp sponge before drying the area.
