Natural Wood products

With proper care, Exotic Bathrooms cabinetry will provide years of use and satisfaction. Proper care involves attentive cleaning, polishing and careful avoidance of damaging household cleaners.

Our cabinets represent the careful selection of woods, and laminated MDF panels. While every effort is made to match wood-grain as closely as possible, no two pieces of wood are exactly alike, even from the same tree. These differences in colour and grain mean that each piece will respond differently to the finishing materials used. For example, closed-grain woods absorb less and will vary in colour from more open-grained pieces from the very same tree. It's these variations that contribute to the beauty and distinction of quality wood products. However, exposure to sunlight, smoke, and chemicals may cause some materials to fade or vary from their original color over time.

This is why cabinets or accessories added at a later date may not exactly match cabinets installed now. For the same reasons, displays may not represent the exact colour of cabinets received at the time of shipment. You should also read all cleaning-agent instructions carefully before application.

Because of these natural and environmental factors, you'll understand why Exotic Bathrooms cannot be responsible for naturally occurring changes experienced by the wood in your cabinets.

So enjoy the character of your Exotic Bathrooms cabinets. They are truly unique. And with proper care, they will age beautifully for years to come. Photography is for illustration purposes only, and actual colours may vary slightly due to the printing process. Exotic Bathrooms also reserves the right to change or modify cabinets as part of its ongoing product development.

Wood Cabinet Surfaces
As with all wood products, avoid excessive moisture. Exotic Bathrooms cabinetry is designed for use inside the home or other buildings and is not intended for outdoor applications. Once your cabinets have been installed, wipe down all exteriors with a damp cloth to remove dust. Complete a small area at a time and wipe dry. Wood cabinetry finishes may be cleaned and protected by using any commercially available cleaning polish. Exotic Bathrooms recommends an emulsion-type cleaner. These are formulated without wax, petroleum solvents or silicones. The extended use of wax polishes can result in a wax film buildup, while the use of silicone polishes can harm the cabinet's finish.

Avoid using cleaners that contain the following: bleach, ammonia, citrus products, organic solvents; harsh detergents, strong soaps, abrasive cleansers; or self-polishing waxes (particularly products that contain silicone). We do not recommend using paste wax because of the “build up” and “yellowing” effects over time. We do recommend the use of a high-quality cream furniture polish.
