surface close at hand.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

GLASS

Glass surface is maintained using household glass cleaner and a paper towel or cloth.

SATIN-ETCHED GLASS

This uniquely smooth-to-the-touch glass surface can be regularly maintained using household glass
cleaner and a paper towel or cloth. Minor scratches or scuffs not eliminated using paper towel or cloth
can usually be removed by using a ‘Magic Eraser’. Magic Eraser is a melamine foam product available
at any grocery store or home improvement center. Dampen the entire glass surface as well as the
Magic Eraser, then rub the entire glass surface in broad, even strokes using moderate pressure. Clean
and dry the surface with a paper towel. Check for results and repeat as necessary.

Any scratches or scuffing not eliminated by one of the above methods can often be addressed by
‘refreshing’ the glass. This is a process that should not be required more than once per 6-12 months.
See this brief video for the simple method: www.bdiusa.com/glass

WOOD

Wood surfaces should be cleaned with a slightly damp (not saturated) cloth or paper towel. Do not
use glass cleaner on wood. If moisture remains, dry the surface with another cloth. If needed, a gentle
non-abrasive cleanser may be used, but be sure to wipe away all cleaner residue and dry the surface
with a cloth.

BDI’s wood finishes feature natural hardwood solids and veneers. Wood is a product of nature and—
unlike man-made materials that can be manufactured to strict and consistent specifications—has
natural imperfections that are part of its appeal and character. Every piece of wood differs from every
other, even when coming from the very same tree. As such, variation in grain, texture and tone should
be expected from one panel or piece of furniture to the next.

While BDI’s stained wood finishes are stable in tone & appearance, all finishes are subject to some
degree of discoloration with prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Please take care to avoid
positioning your BDI cabinet in any area with extensive direct sunlight. To learn more about the
features of natural wood, visit www.bdiusa.com/wood

METAL & PAINTED SURFACES

Surfaces should be cleaned with a slightly damp (not saturated) cloth or paper towel. If moisture
remains, dry the surface with another cloth. If needed, a gentle non-abrasive cleanser may be used,
but be sure to wipe away all cleaner residue and dry the surface with a cloth.
