Taking care of wood furniture

You should have some idea regarding wood furniture and the way to handle them. The following paragraphs will give some information about this.

When you move wood furniture

The best way to shift wood furniture from place to another is to carry it by the frame or any strongest part. In case you are trying to move a dresser pull out the drawers from it as it will reduce the weight and you can carry it easily. Use both of your hands to pull the drawers and pull it outright.

How to clean wood furniture

Another issue which needs to be considered is the use of correct cleaner on the wood particle. It will be best to use a solution of mineral oil, turpentine, and white vinegar on a sponge and clean the surface with a piece of rag. To get rid of the oil from the polished furniture clean the surface with turpentine on a clean rag at least twice, in case the rag becomes solid you can use a new one. In order to clean wax from the furniture, paint turpentine with an artist brush and then wipe it off using a wet cloth.

How to paint old wood furniture

In case the old wood furniture is ruined or worn out, you can try out some mineral oil, rub on the surface, and thus avoid painting them. The dust and grim will disappear completely and the colour is brightened up. Mild dishwashing liquid can be used to wash painted furniture.

Home remedies to cover scratches and stains
In case the table cloth sticks to the table, rub moderate amount of mayonnaise over the left over of the tablecloth. After the mayonnaise is soaked completely on to the table wipe off the mess with a cloth or clean paper. Mayonnaise can also clean the crayon marks on the wooden furniture in the same way.

To hide the scratch in your wood piece rub crayon of the same colour into the scratch and the furniture will appear devoid of any scratches. To hide dark stains of the furniture, make a thick paste of coffee powder and water and cover it over the scratch.
