Care and Maintenance
Braiding and Frame
- Rinse the braiding regularly with clean water. For intensive cleaning, use Synthetics Super Cleaner. This cleaner also works perfectly for the powder coated stainless steel frame. Always rinse the furniture with clean water after treatment with PNZ cleaning agents. Allow the braiding to dry and treat with Textile Protector. This will apply an invisible repellent film which enables the furniture to dry quicker and reduces the adhesion of dirt, stains and pollution. The cleaning will become easier, less frequent and requires mainly rinsing with clean water.
