Terms of service

Effective April 2026  ·  Governing Law: The Netherlands  ·  www.buhron.com

Overview

Welcome to www.buhron.com (the "Site"), operated by Buhron® ("Buhron®", "we", "us", or "our"). Buhron® is a sole-trader business registered in the Netherlands, with its principal place of business at Torenlaan 5B, 1402 AT Bussum, The Netherlands.

Buhron® operates this store and website — including all related information, content, products, and services — to provide you with a curated shopping experience (the "Services"). The Site is powered by Shopify Inc.

Please read these Terms carefully. They govern your rights and responsibilities as a customer, including important limitations around product use, liability, and applicable law. By placing an order or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

1. Access and Account

By using the Services, you confirm that you are of legal age in your country of residence to enter into binding contracts. You represent that all information you provide is accurate, current, and complete. You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Accounts may not be transferred or assigned.

2. Our Products

2.1 Product Description
Buhron® offers a professional-grade, two-step metal care system: (1) an impregnated polishing cloth that removes surface tarnish, oxidation, and fine scratches; and (2) a dry microfibre cloth that buffs residual polish to a high-gloss mirror finish. Products are EU-manufactured and sold in single packs and multi-pack tins.

The polishing cloth contains non-toxic lubricating oils and a specialised polishing compound. It is safe for skin and does not contain hazardous substances. The cloth darkens naturally during use — this is part of the process and does not affect performance. Store cloths in their original sealed packaging between uses; do not wash or rinse them, as this removes the polishing compound.

2.2 Scope of Results — Important Clarification
Where Buhron® product descriptions, packaging, or marketing materials refer to "removing scratches" or "restoring shine to all metals", these statements refer specifically to fine surface scratches, light tarnish, and oxidation on solid polished metals. They do not apply to:

  • Deep gouges, structural damage, or heavy mechanical scratches that exceed surface level;
  • Surfaces, finishes, or materials not listed in Section 2.3 as compatible;
  • Any surface that has not been tested in accordance with the instructions on the packaging.

In the event of any inconsistency between general marketing language and the specific limitations in this document, these Terms take precedence.

2.3 Compatible Surfaces
Buhron® products are designed and tested for use on solid and polished metal surfaces, including:

  • Stainless Steel – Silver – Gold – Copper – Platinum – Brass – Bronze – Nickel – Plexiglass
  • Chrome — suitable for solid chrome and thick chrome-plated surfaces only (see Section 2.4)

For items of significant monetary, antique, or irreplaceable value, we recommend testing on a hidden area first or consulting a professional before use.

2.4 Surfaces Requiring Caution or Avoidance
⚠ Do not use on brushed metal surfaces — use will permanently remove the brushed texture. This damage is irreversible.
Chrome: compatible for solid and thick-plated only. If unsure of plating thickness, treat as thin plating.
Thinly plated surfaces: use gentle pressure only, test on a hidden area first, and inspect regularly. Buhron® accepts no liability for plating wear resulting from use.
Not suitable for: anodised, lacquered, coated, or painted surfaces; satin or matte finishes; soft or porous materials (pearls, fabric, leather, enamel, wood).
Always test on a small hidden area before full application. Keep out of reach of children.

3. Orders

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. A binding contract is formed only upon order confirmation and dispatch. Buhron® reserves the right to accept or decline any order at its sole discretion. Please review your order carefully before submitting. Purchases are for personal or household use only and not for commercial resale or export.

4. Prices and Billing

Prices are subject to change without notice. The price charged will be the price in effect at the time of order. Unless stated, prices exclude applicable taxes, VAT, shipping, customs, or import charges. Where VAT is applicable, it will be shown at checkout. For orders outside the EU, local taxes and import duties are your sole responsibility.

5. Shipping and Delivery

Buhron® ships internationally. All delivery timescales are estimates only and are not guaranteed. We are not liable for delays caused by third-party carriers, customs processing, or events outside our reasonable control. Risk of loss passes to you upon handover to the carrier. EU consumers retain all statutory delivery rights under applicable EU consumer law.

6. Returns and Refunds

Our full Return Policy is available at buhron.com/policies/return-policy.

6.1 EU/EEA Consumers: 14-day right of withdrawal from date of receipt. Item must be unopened and in its original sealed packaging. Returns of opened items are not accepted under the hygiene exception (Article 16(e) of Directive 2011/83/EU). Return shipping at your expense. Refund within 14 days of receiving your return.

6.2 Outside EU: All sales are final unless your item arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect.

6.4 Non-Returnable Items: Opened or unsealed products cannot be returned for hygiene reasons, except where confirmed defective.

7. Product Liability and Limitation for Misuse

This section is important. Please read it in full.

Buhron® has communicated product instructions and surface compatibility warnings through multiple channels including printed packaging, an in-box instruction card, a QR code video guide, and www.buhron.com. The packaging explicitly states: "Use only as instructed. The manufacturer is not liable for improper use."

By purchasing and using our products, you expressly acknowledge and agree that:

  • Buhron® products are designed for use on compatible solid and polished surfaces as listed in Section 2.3 and on the product packaging.
  • Use on brushed metal surfaces is expressly prohibited and will cause irreversible damage.
  • Use on unsupported surfaces or materials not listed in Section 2.3 is entirely at your sole risk.
  • Use on thinly plated surfaces requires caution, testing, and regular inspection. Any damage from failure to follow this guidance is at your sole risk.
  • Buhron® shall not be liable for any damage resulting from: (a) use on brushed, satin, anodised, coated, or unsupported surfaces; (b) use on thinly plated surfaces without stated precautions; (c) failure to follow printed product instructions; or (d) failure to conduct a patch test before full application.
  • The product is formulated to address fine surface scratches, light tarnish, and oxidation. No specific outcome or level of restoration is guaranteed.
  • Do not wash or rinse the polishing cloths. Store in original sealed packaging between uses. Keep out of reach of children.

Nothing in this section limits your mandatory statutory rights as a consumer under applicable EU, Dutch, or local law.
