Spring Refresh: How to Care for Your SICOTAS Furniture
Spring Cleaning: Essential Furniture Care Tips for a Fresh Start
As the seasons change and spring arrives, it's the perfect time to refresh your home and give your furniture the care it deserves. After enduring winter’s dryness and indoor heating, your furniture—whether wood, leather, or upholstered—may need some extra attention. Proper maintenance not only extends the life of your furniture but also keeps your living space looking fresh and inviting. Here’s how to give your furniture the springtime care it needs.
How to Keep it Clean and Dust-Free
Over time, dust and dirt accumulate on furniture surfaces, dulling their appearance. Start your spring cleaning by thoroughly dusting all furniture pieces with a soft microfiber cloth. For hard-to-reach areas, use a vacuum with a brush attachment. If your furniture has intricate carvings or grooves, a small paintbrush or an old toothbrush can help remove dust from crevices.
To keep your SICOTAS rattan pieces looking fresh:
✔️ Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe surfaces.
✔️ Avoid harsh chemicals, acetone, or alcohol-based cleaners, which may cause discoloration or peeling.
✔️ Wipe with a damp (not soaking wet) cloth to clean stains, then immediately dry with a soft towel to ensure no moisture lingers.
Pro Tip: Avoid using feather dusters, as they tend to spread dust rather than remove it.

Prevent Scratches & Peeling
Although our high-quality sticker finishes are durable, they require some care to prevent scratches or peeling over time.
✔️ Use placemats and coasters on dining tables and coffee tables to avoid water rings and heat damage.
✔️ Avoid dragging heavy objects across the surface—lift and place instead.
✔️ Edge protectors can be used for high-traffic areas to minimize accidental chipping.
🔹 SICOTAS Pick: The Helio Collection features elegant designs —keeping surfaces scratch-free ensures long-lasting sophistication.
Control Moisture & Heat Exposure
MDF furniture performs best in stable indoor conditions, so it’s important to manage humidity and temperature.
✔️ Keep furniture away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent warping or fading.
✔️ Avoid placing items with high moisture content (like wet towels or hot mugs) directly on the surface.
✔️ Use a dehumidifier in humid environments to maintain material integrity.

Inspect and Tighten Hardware
Spring is a great time to check your furniture’s structural integrity. Inspect tables, chairs, and cabinets for loose screws, wobbly legs, or misaligned doors. Tighten any loose bolts and lubricate drawer tracks for smooth operation.
