SPECIAL NOTE:

Since wood is a natural material, you may notice light variations in the shades of different wooden elements in the piece or pieces. Also, if you have bought these products at different times, variations in colour and shade may be caused by climatic/environmental factors, or the period of time that has passed between purchases. We do not consider that variations outlined above to be valid reasons for claims and/or returns. The shades of light bulbs would also make the product look different in colour.

Timber “a natural product”; Timber is “alive” and is subject to the natural movement inherent in solid timber, which occurs with the variations in the humidity levels of the atmosphere between areas and seasons. While Sundown products are suited to the majority of domestic (some products commercial) applications, we do not recommend its use to arid or extreme conditions.

Stains; stains and varnishes are also subject to climatic/environmental factors, a newly polished product would most likely always look different from the floor model or a product purchased earlier.

It is more evident in the lighter stains. This is normal, as the sunlight’s UV rays would always change the shade of any natural product. The new product would mellow over time and look closer to the older one.

 

** IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN EVEN COLOURING, IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT THE TABLE IS LEFT FULLY EXTENDED. FOR A PERIOD OF 30 DAYS **

 

The Enemies of furniture:

Many common problems in furniture are caused by some elements. If you are aware of these, the resulting damage can be easily avoided.

  • Sunlight; Sunlight’s ultra-violet rays can damage wood finishes, and can also change the shade of your furniture. As this furniture is made out of many different wooden elements, it is possible for the timber elements to look different in shade if exposed to sunlight for a long period of time. Arrange furniture out of direct sunlight.

Use sun-screening drapes during intense sunlight hours, rotate furniture in place and room arrangement.

  • Heat; Heat creates a chemical change in the furniture finish which can result in a white spot. Use protective mats under hot dishes, utensils or cooking appliances.

Cyclic changes in temperature can damage furniture. Placing furniture near to central heating radiators and air ducts should be avoided because this causes extreme localized drying of the wood.

  • Liquids; Liquid spills will damage furniture if not removed promptly. Use coasters under beverage glasses and saucers under cups and flowerpots. If a spill occurs, immediately blot it gently with a clean soft damp cloth without rubbing the surface.
  • Dust; Dust will scratch furniture if not removed correctly as it could cause microscopic scratches on your furniture surface.
