Kingsley Bate Limited Warranty:

• Teak – 5 years residential, 3 years commercial (structural frame)

Product warranties do not apply to the following:

1. Damage from freight/shipping or incorrect assembly.
2. Unreasonable or abusive use, improper repairs, or post-purchase modifications.
3. Acts of God, freeze damage, or mildew.
4. Damage from chemicals, such as ammonia cleaners or suntan oils.
5. Normal wear, including fading, stretching or pilling of fabrics, and glides.
6. Improper care or failure to provide reasonable and necessary care and maintenance, as outlined at www.kingsleybate.com.
7. Natural characteristics of teak, including checking (small cracks), teak oil secretions, and a lifting of the grain as the wood weathers outdoors.

New Teak Furniture: Teak is rich in natural oils, and some may surface during the first few rainfalls or humid days. This is normal and stops once the teak begins to weather.

Weathering: Left outdoors, teak weathers to a silver-gray patina, usually within nine to twelve months. Small surface cracks ("checking"), a slightly raised grain after the first rains, and water spots are normal. They're cosmetic and even out over time. To keep the golden-brown color, apply Kingsley Bate Teak Protector each season.

Cleaning Teak: Rinse with a garden hose (never high pressure, which can erode the wood). Scrub with a soft bristle brush and a solution of 2/3 cup laundry detergent (or 1/4 cup high-efficiency detergent) and 1/4 cup bleach in 1 gallon of warm water, then rinse thoroughly. For tougher stains, Kingsley Bate Teak Cleaner removes the patina and restores the golden-brown color. Don't oil teak or use oil-based sealers, which can lead to mildew.

Covers: Custom-fit protective covers are recommended when the furniture isn't in use for long periods. Make sure the furniture is clean and dry before covering it, and remove covers from time to time so the furniture can air out, especially after rain.

Winter Storage: Teak can stay outdoors year-round. If you prefer to store it, use a dry, unheated garage or shed, or a breathable cover. Clean and dry it before storing. In spring, check the hardware and tighten any loose bolts by hand.
