What maintenance is required?
• Regular cleaning: wash lightly with warm water and mild detergent to remove dirt, grime, bird droppings, etc. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads which can dull or scratch the varnish
• Periodic inspection: Check for loss of sheen, faded patches, or rough areas – these indicate the varnish is breaking down. Look for water beading – if it stops beading, the protective film is losing effectiveness. Inspect edges and joints where water penetration tends to start
• Touch-ups and re-coating: If you spot cracks, peeling, flaking or bare wood, sand back to solid varnish (or bare wood if necessary), clean thoroughly — and re-varnish. Leaving damaged areas untreated may allow moisture ingress, leading to wood rot or more serious deterioration
