1. Regular Cleaning:
Wipe the table with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with a mild cleaner. Never use abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, as they can scratch or damage the table coating.
2. Avoid Direct Sunlight:
Long - term exposure to UV rays can cause the epoxy to turn yellow over time. Place the table away from direct sunlight.
3. Avoid Heavy Objects:
Be careful not to place heavy objects on the table, as this may cause indentations or stress on the epoxy.
4. Heat Resistance:
Although epoxy is generally heat - resistant, it is not completely immune to heat damage. Avoid placing hot pots, pans, or other hot items directly on the epoxy resin surface.
5. Promptly Clean Spills:
Immediately clean any spills, especially those that are acidic or likely to cause staining, such as red wine or fruit juice.
6. Avoid Sharp Objects:
Sharp objects can scratch the epoxy resin surface. Pay attention to avoid using knives or other sharp utensils directly on the table.
7. Regular Inspection:
Periodically check for any signs of damage or wear. Minor scratches can often be sanded with fine sandpaper and then polished.
8. Recoating:
Over time, if the table loses its luster or develops numerous scratches, consider applying a new layer of epoxy resin to restore its appearance.
9. Temperature and Humidity:
Epoxy tables prefer a stable environment. Place the table in an area with consistent temperature and humidity.
10. Moving the Table:
If you need to move the table, make sure to lift it instead of dragging it to prevent excessive pressure on the bottom or potential cracking.
