Furniture cleaning is one of the inevitable house keeping tasks, which has to be performed on daily basis. We dust and wipe our wooden furniture pieces every day, but only few of us know how many excellent recommendations we could use for better furniture cleaning and maintenance and for prolonging its ‘life’ in our homes. Let us take a look at some of those things here.
I’ll start with saying that all wooden furniture is moisture and sun rays sensitive. The optimal moisture percentage for furniture keeping is 40-60 %. If the room is too moist your furniture may get stains on it; if it’s too dry the furniture is likely to get cracks.
Daily wooden furniture care consists in dusting it and cleaning the dirts off with a soft flannel or velvet rag. If you use wet rags too often your furniture, especially the polished one, will lose its shine.
If you got stains made by hot things on your polished furniture you may remove them by doing this: cover those spots with a piece of paraffin with wax, cover it all up with paper and press down with hot iron. You may need to carry out such a procedure for one more time and then cover it all with a soft fabric. Or else you may rub such white hot stains on the polished furniture with the soft rag dipped in a mixture of oil and spirit (mixed in equal parts).
If you want to maintain your polished furniture always shining and make it a bit dust repellant, once in a while you may cover it with a mixture of 3 measures of turpentine, 2 measures of stearic acid and a bit of colouring agent fitting your furniture color. You rub it in with a flannel, leave it on for 2 hours and then rub your furniture up with a soft cloth until it shines. Such shine will stay on for weeks.
If you got an oak or chestnut furniture and you want to get rid off small scratches on it, you should cover it with a light iodine solution, using a small brush.
Oak furniture cleaning can be easily and effectively done using warm beer. If you want it to shine, you may rub it with the following mixture: one glassful of beer, one tea spoon of sugar and a piece of wax.
Chesnutt furniture can be cleaned using a mixture of red wine and olive oil in one to one proportion.
As you may see, all your wooden furniture cleaning can be done using only natural, affordable and healthy ingredients, attaining great results and helping you to mend some of your furniture faults
