*** Furniture Polish and Scratch Remover Tips ***
The idea behind furniture polish for wood products is to absorb oil into the wood. Many oils commonly found in our kitchens work very well. Vegetable Oil or Olive Oil and Lemon Juice. Mix 2 parts oil and 1 part lemon juice. Apply and polish with a soft cloth. This leaves furniture looking and smelling good.
For Unfinished Wood: Mineral Oil. Mineral oil is flammable, apply sparingly with a soft cloth. For lemon oil polish, dissolve 1 teaspoon lemon oil into 1 pint mineral oil. CAUTION: Mineral spirits should never be substituted for mineral oil as it can be dangerous when inhaled or absorbed through the skin.
For Mahogany: Vinegar. Mix equal parts white vinegar and warm water. Wipe onto wood and then polish with a chamois cloth.
For Grease Spots: Lemon Juice and Vegetable Oil. Mix equal parts of lemon juice and salad oil. Rub into scratches with a soft cloth until scratches disappear.
For Water Spots: Toothpaste. To remove water marks, rub gently with toothpaste on a damp cloth.
For Washing Wood: Mild Soap. Dampen cloth with a solution of water and mild soap, such as Ivory or Murphy's Oil Soap. Wring the cloth almost dry and wipe the furniture section by section, drying with a clean dry cloth as you go so that no section stays wet.
For Refinishing Old Furniture: Commercial Oil Soap. Before you set to work on an old piece of furnitiure with chemical finish removers, try Vegetable Oil Soap. This simple, nontoxic solvent may be all the help an antique needs. Follow label directions.
