Maintenance guide for Lanvain furniture

When you invest in Lanvain hair salon furniture, you are investing in quality and elegance. To ensure that your furniture remains as beautiful as the first day, it is essential to maintain it properly. In this article, we give you maintenance tips for each component of our furniture, from leatherette to stainless steel bases, including plumbing and mechanisms.

Maintenance of the leatherette

The leather used in our furniture is a commercial grade vegan vinyl 100% polyester. Here are some tips for its maintenance:

-Avoid corrosive and abrasive products: Using harsh chemicals can damage the leatherette. Instead, opt for soft products.

-Cleaning with soft soap and water: To remove light dirt and stains, a mixture of soft soap and water is sufficient. Avoid the use of hot water.

-Beware of stains: Treat stains quickly to prevent them from becoming embedded. Use a clean, soft cloth to dab the stain, rather than rubbing.

Maintenance of chair base

Our hair salon furniture has bases in stainless steel, gold, black, or white. Here's how to take care of it:

-Stainless steel: Stainless steel resists corrosive and abrasive products. Clean it with a product specifically designed for stainless steel. If rust appears, use a soft brush to remove it.

-Gold base: The gold base is plated, so avoid corrosive products. Promptly remove any corrosive products before they dry, as they can discolor the plated color. Maintain the gold base with water or a mixture of water and soft soap.

-Black and white base: These bases are powder coat. They are resistant to corrosive products but less to abrasives. Clean them with water or a mixture of water and soft soap.

Maintenance of the hydraulic pump

If you notice a squealing noise coming from the metal shaft moving in and out of the hydraulic cylinder, follow these steps:

-Apply hydraulic oil: Apply hydraulic oil when the squealing noise is heard. This should reduce noise and extend the life of the mechanism.

 

Plumbing Maintenance

Plumbing components, whether chrome, gold, or black, require special attention:

-Chrome tap set: Resists corrosive and abrasive products. Maintain it with water or a mixture of water and soft soap.

-Gold tap set: Like the gold base, avoid corrosive products and quickly clean any potentially corrosive substances as this may cause discoloration. Maintain it with water or a mixture of water and soft soap.

-Black tap set: Resists well to corrosive products but less to abrasives. Use water or a soft soap and water mixture for maintenance.

 

If you are experiencing problems such as water leaking from a mixer tap or hose/shower, this may be due to excess limescale in the water blocking the mechanism. Here's how to fix this:

Disassembly for soaking: To dissolve limescale, disassemble the plumbing and soak the parts in a mixture of half water and half vinegar overnight. Be sure to remove the mixer cartridge for soaking.

 All of our Lanvain hair salon furniture deserves to be carefully maintained to preserve its beauty and durability. Use mild soap and water for general cleaning and avoid products containing corrosive agents. With these maintenance tips, you will be able to enjoy your Lanvain furniture for many years while maintaining their elegance and functionality.
