soap and a soft cloth.
Drawer Slides
These slides have been engineered for use indoors. They have been
lubricated at the factory to ensure the expected life of the slide. To
clean the slides, periodically wipe with a soft cloth being careful not
to remove grease on the slides during cleaning as it may shorten the
life of the product and prevent smooth operation. The lubrication
present on the slides is needed to ensure optimal operation and long
life of the slides. The performance of the slides can also be negatively
impacted by extreme temperatures, which can cause the lubrication to
break down. Also, be wary of excessive humidity, chemicals, over spray
of stains and lacquers used in cabinet making, sawdust, dirt, and other
particles that can come in contact with the slides.
Hinges and other functional items:
If needed, Amerock hinges and other functional hardware can be wiped
with a clean soft cloth. There is no maintenance necessary to ensure the
functionality of the product. Many hinges have been lubricated to ensure
optimal performance and long-lasting durability. The product should not
be exposed to extreme temperatures, chemicals or solvents, excessive
dirt or sawdust or any staining material. Such exposure may break down
the composition of the lubricating agent and negatively impact the
performance of the product.
