1115R and 1115WC Models CAUTION To prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of the Wine Captain, the wine rack wood trim MUST be removed from the unit for staining and/or finishing. Allow stain/ finish to dry thoroughly (at least 24 hours per coat) in accordance with the stain/finish manufacturer's instructions prior to re-installing the wood trim inside the cabinet of the Wine Captain. Failure to do so may cause the inner liner of the unit to have a permanent odor, which is not covered by the warranty.
1115R and 1115WC Models If staining the trim is desired, it must be done before the application of any type of final finish. Review the following staining/final finish and final finish-only guidelines when staining and/or sealing the wood to ensure proper adhesion and durability of the finish. Final finish-only application: 1. Remove all screws, securing wood trim to interior components, and remove the trim. 2. Lightly scruff sand the wood trim with 280 or finer grit sandpaper.
