Hello everyone, I recently assembled my new IKEA Brimnes furniture and am now wondering how to best protect the surface to keep it looking like new for as long as possible. I am especially interested in methods or products that help prevent scratches, minor wear, and general abrasion without negatively affecting the appearance or feel. Are there any home remedies or specialized care products you would recommend? I would also like to know if sealing with a specific type of varnish or wax is advisable and how these should be applied. I look forward to your experiences and tips!

One more tip for cleaning: Do not use abrasive sponges or steel wool, as they cause permanent scratches. Soft microfiber cloths are the best choice.

A final thought: The best protection is often personal caution. No care product in the world can completely prevent severe mechanical damage. So, it’s important not only to protect the surface but also to handle the furniture carefully and mindfully.

In summary, IKEA Brimnes surfaces do not require additional sealing. Simple, gentle cleaning and avoiding sharp objects are sufficient. Protective measures such as felt pads or mats are the most effective way to prevent scratches.
