How to maintain solid wood furniture in high temperature and high humidity weather

Cracking

Solid wood furniture is a natural material. The water content of the board is relatively high, and the material with high water content is afraid of exposure. The first thing to do in maintaining solid wood furniture in summer is to pay attention to sun protection. After exposure, solid wood furniture will not only fade and dim, but also lose internal moisture, leading to cracking and deformation. "The maintenance of furniture, according to different materials, generally starts from solid wood, composite solid wood, plate, cloth and other categories. Dongheng risheng design and decoration company

said that when using solid wood furniture, attention should be paid to preventing cracking. It is reported that furniture cracking can be roughly divided into two situations: one is that the parting cracks become bigger, and the other is that the furniture surface is cracked. The biggest

cause of cracking of solid wood furniture is humidity rather than temperature. In summer, it is easy to cause the air to be too dry when the air conditioner is turned on indoors. When the air is extremely dry, it will lose water and shrink automatically, so that there are a few cracks on the surface. The decorator

suggested that when people use solid wood furniture, they should not only avoid direct sunlight, but also do "maintenance" for the solid wood furniture regularly. They can apply "maintenance oil" to form a protective layer on the surface of the furniture to isolate the air, which can not only protect

the moisture inside the solid wood from loss, but also prevent it from absorbing the moisture in the air from swelling and deformation.

Deformation

According to people in the decoration industry, panel furniture has been edge-sealed, and its moisture-proof ability is relatively strong, but the bonding place of panel furniture is easy to get wet, which leads to deformation and even cracking of panel furniture. It is suggested that when using panel < P > furniture in summer, attention should be paid to waterproofing, waterproof pads should be installed under the legs of furniture which are easy to absorb water, and ventilation distance should be kept on the walls near the external walls and bathrooms. "The public should pay more attention to the cleanliness of the joints of the lower panel furniture."

The decoration designer suggested that citizens can use two sets of dry and wet rags when cleaning their furniture. "After wiping with a wet cloth that wrings out the water, you can dry it with a dry cloth and pay attention to ventilation." According to the decoration company, when the panel furniture < P > bumps, it is recommended that the public handle it in time. If it is not handled, moisture is likely to invade the interior along the bumps, which is more troublesome to handle later. And solid wood composite furniture, because of the use of solid wood veneer, in wet weather,

the surface veneer is easy to open, and the same deformation needs "maintenance oil". Now it is popular to apply "walnut oil" on the surface of this kind of furniture, which has a good protective effect.
