Wood furniture requires proper care and cleaning. In this article, you will learn how to extend the life and new look of wooden furniture in your home.
Avoid These Grooming Mistakes
Do not spray cleaner directly on furniture
Since wood has a porous structure, it absorbs moisture well.
Instead, apply detergent to a rag.
Do not use too hard sponges and rags
The harsh material of cleaning tools can damage the integrity of the furniture surface.
Choose microfiber cloths that won't scratch your desk or cabinet.
Avoid very wet cleaning
Make sure that there is not too much water or product on the rag.
When there is too much moisture, the wood absorbs it and swells.
Do not polish wooden furniture
Polishing agents contain silicones that create a barrier. These substances attract more dust and dirt.
After several polishes, wood furniture can become sticky and dirty.
Do not place glasses on wooden furniture
Always use coasters for mugs, bowls, bottles and flower vases.
These items can leave behind traces that are difficult to get rid of.
To clean, use a microfiber cloth and some wood cleaner.
