The appropriate lighting can transform a space into a warm and inviting environment. Proper lighting in the areas where we work may make our lives simpler. Lighting has the power to make or destroy a room’s vibe. You still don’t trust us? Consider the following scenario in a restaurant dining room: With candles on the tables and mirrors reflecting the warm light throughout the room, it provides a gentle, subdued, pleasing glow. Imagine the same space at closing time, with the fluorescent overheads switched on to wipe the floors—you’re in a different place.

Every Few Weeks, Clean

Cleaning your lamps, whether at home or with the help of the professionals at A Lamp and Fixture Corp., is an important component of your lighting maintenance activities. Before cleaning any of the lighting fixtures, make sure they are unplugged from the power source and the articulations are unscrewed so you can have a better view of the lights’ arms. Remove the bulbs and, if necessary, replace them. Then, for the greatest results, utilize these guidelines based on the different materials of your lighting.

Copper Or Iron

You’ll need a somewhat acidic solution to cut through grease and dust on your iron, copper, or other metal lights. A few drops of lemon oil will be enough, but wiping should be done with caution and with soft strokes.

Brass

You won’t need a specific brass cleaner for brass-based lights because they’re coated to avoid tarnishing. To restore the luster of your lamp, all you need is a soft cloth to wipe away any dust.

Marble

Marble lamps are beautiful and stylish, but they require constant cleaning to keep their flawless appearance. Simply wipe away any collected dust or grime using a wet cloth. Scrubbing or rubbing too hard on the marble surface might result in scratches.

Colors That Have Been Lacquered

Wipe away debris or dust with a soft wet cloth, or remove stubborn stains or markings using a mild dish soap solution and water. Rinse the cloth and repeat the process a couple of times more.
