Antique furniture is something we have to take good care of it.
They are beautiful, the wood can have so many shades of brown, but if a drop of water, a scratch or some dirt gets into it, they lose all the magic.
This table is very very old, so to remove this dirt it was a very delicate job.
WHAT IS NEEDED
- Furniture Wax - good quality one
- A few clean lint-free cloths - I like the fluffy yellow dusters for waxing and polishing.
STEP 1 - Dip the finger into the wax.
STEP 2 - Very gently, massage the wax into the dirt - follow the grain of the wood - and let it soak for a minute.
STEP 3 - Now, that the dirt as softer it up, very gently and delicately remove whatever was sticking to the table.
STEP 4 - Pass the finger over the wood, to fill if all the dirt is gone.
STEP 5 - With a clean cloth, remove the excess of wax, using circular movements.
STEP 6 - With a clean fluffy soft cloth, give a good buff to the wood table, always using circular movements.
TO SEE if the table is well polished, using a clean cloth, through it over the table, if it skids without stopping is good to go, but if it stops halfway through, back to polishing again.
