Acetylated wood is a high-performance timber designed for durability and stability. To keep the wood looking its best and to ensure long-term enjoyment, please reference these simple maintenance steps: 

1. The Natural Aging Process (Patina)

• What to Expect: When left untreated outdoors, this wood will naturally develop a gray patina over time due to UV light and moisture.
• Maintenance Note: This change is purely aesthetic and does not affect the strength, durability, or structural integrity of the wood.

2. Routine cleaning
Remove mud and dirt by scrubbing with a brush and water. Outdoor exposure may lead to blackening from mildew over time, which can be addressed using a detergent or bleach solution.

3. Routine Safety Inspections

• Regular Checks: Periodically inspect your wood for any splinters, loose components, or hardware issues.
• Safety First: If you notice any damage that could compromise the safety of the product, discontinue use immediately.

4. Preserving the Original Color
If you prefer to maintain the original, newly installed look of the wood, follow these steps:

• Clean: Gently clean the surface with a mild soap solution or a light bleach solution, scrubbing with a soft-bristle brush.
• Dry: Allow the wood to dry completely.
• Treat: Apply a tinted, non-toxic, breathable, and penetrating exterior stain to protect against UV damage.
• Prevent Mildew: Follow up with a non-toxic, breathable mildewcide to protect against surface mold and algae growth.
