Timber Interior Panelling Care & Maintenance Guide
March 9, 2021
Although timber wall and ceiling panelling does not require the same frequent cleaning as a timber floor, you may find it does need the occasional dust or surface clean. Periodic cleaning of your wall and/or ceiling panelling will help to keep it looking great for many years to come.
Dusting
Over time, wall and ceiling panelling may build up a layer of dust - especially if the surface of the product is textured. It is best to remove this periodically, to avoid a buildup over time which may prove more difficult to remove.
- Wall and/or ceiling panelling should be dusted as often as it appears dusty
- Dust can be removed with a microfiber cloth or mop with a microfibre dusting pad attached
Cleaning
Over time wall and ceiling panelling may accumulate finger marks, grime and smears, etc. It is best to treat these as they appear, to avoid a buildup over time which could be harder to remove.
- Timber wall and/or ceiling panelling should be cleaned as often as it appears dirty. It is recommended to dust the product prior to cleaning
- For products that have a finish applied, clean using a damp microfibre cloth or mop with a microfibre cleaning pad attached, together with an appropriate cleaning solution. Please note: We do not recommend cleaning raw / unfinished product as this may leave unsightly watermarks
- Always use a cleaning product that is approved for the type of finish on your wall panelling. Bona Wood Floor Cleaner is suitable for most wood products finished with polyurethane, lacquer or hard wax-oil
- When cleaning, ensure your cloth or cleaning pad is damp to the touch (not dripping wet), as excess water can lead to coating issues as well as swelling of the product
