Bow-Front Desks — Expert Answer

How do I clean and protect a bow-front desk surface from scratches and wear?

Surface protection is a practical maintenance consideration for any executive desk investment. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, we provide care guidance for every finish in our catalog. For high-pressure laminate bow-fronts — by far the most common surface in commercial environments — daily care is simple: microfiber cloth, mild soap solution, immediate drying. The laminate's melamine wear layer resists most scratches in normal office use. For wood veneer surfaces, more attentive care is warranted: quarterly conditioning with an appropriate furniture polish, protection from moisture and sunlight, and a leather desk pad for daily writing surfaces. Felt pads under all desktop accessories prevent micro-abrasions that dull the surface over time. Call 1-800-460-0858 for material-specific maintenance guidance.
