Accompanying the hot summer months are mold, mildews and fungus that thrive in warm, moist environments. Regular cleaning of your Royal Heritage Home Furnishings® natural wood furniture from your local PMD Furniture Direct™ franchisee should be enough to prevent mildew that thrives on organic materials like paper, leather, and wood. Cooled, dehumidified and circulated indoor air is good for your health and that of your furniture. If, however, you find mold damage, follow these few steps:
- Remove mold immediately as it can cause sickness, respiratory problems and have an odor.
- Wring out a cloth soaked in a solution of three parts water and one part mild detergent.
- Wipe surface of the furniture with the solution to remove the mold.
- Wipe one small area at a time, followed by a cloth dipped in plain water.
- Dry all areas thoroughly.
- Clean greasy or filmy substances off your furniture with furniture cleaner, which is different than furniture polish. Wax buildup can harbor mold.
- Scrub stubborn spots with a brush dipped in a solution of five parts water and one part chlorine bleach. Test an inconspicuous area first to test colorfastness. Rinse the area thoroughly with plain water and then dry.
- Weather permitting, place the furniture outside in the sun to dry. Sunlight aids in oxidation and will be a huge factor in the fight against mold and mildew.
Following these steps will ensure that your beautiful natural wood furniture from your local PMD Furniture Direct™ franchisee will give you years of enjoyable use.
