Looking After Wooden Furniture


After you've gotten your furniture looked after by AK carpentry, you might want a few tips on how to keep it looking as great as we leave it. Clean it off with a little warm water, a soft cloth, and a gentle dish soap, making sure you don't use too much. Kitchen towels will work great at mopping up any residue, and can be screwed up to get to those awkward spots too.

 

Look for a good quality soft wood wax to maintain that shine, putting on a light spread and leave it for a few minutes before rubbing it away gently with a cloth or soft brush. Give it another hour and rub it again with a little more elbow, and you'll see a proper shine on it that will last a long tim.

 

Mind leaving your furniture near to the sun or windows, as that will dry the wood and cause cracking, as well as baking the finish. Likewise keep them away from the radiator or range. A touch of shoe polish of the right colour can be used to hide small cracks and stress marks.
