Revive Your Wood Furniture

Spend an afternoon and get your wood furniture looking practically new.

You will need -

Weiman’s Furniture Soap
Weiman’s Furniture Cream
Rubbing Compound (yes, automotive)
Pledge
Soft rags

You might also need some stain and wood filler for bad scratches.

Dust off furniture.

Wash with furniture soap using a slightly damp, soft rag.
You don’t want to over-wet your wood furniture.

Take your time and make sure to rinse well, frequently rinsing out and wringing your rag.

If you have fine scratches, or the finish is looking dull - put some rubbing compound on your damp rag and gently rub in the direction of the grain. Rubbing compound is afine sanding, so be very gentle- and do not swirl.

Repeat a thorough rinsing with a clean damp rag, remembering to wring your rag out well.

If needed, fill in with stain (or wood filler and stain for bigger gouges), and let dry before proceeding. Be sure to wipe stain evenly, and wipe off any excess right away.

With another clean slightly damp rag, apply furniture cream.

With a clean, dry, soft rag, dray and buff the furniture.

Now, leave it alone for at least an hour.

To finish up, apply a good coat of pledge and shine it up.

I know, the last step may be controversial. I have really old furniture that still looks great.

If you do this routine at least once a year (twice at most), your wood furniture will look great for many years to come.
