You’ll Need:
-Old English furniture polish
-A few rags you’ll be happy to pitch after OR paper towels
-Maybe a mask + gloves if you’re pregs, you can never be too careful
Step 1- Make sure the furniture that you are going to polish is dusted, clean, and dry and is in a ventilated space.
Step 2- Shake the furniture polish.
Step 3- Add a dab to a cloth and test a small hidden portion of the wood.
Step 4- Add small amounts to your cloth and gently rub it in a circular motion into the entire surface of your furniture being careful to avoid contact with any linens, clothing, and skin.
Step 5- Allow to dry and step back and admire your newly-improved, protected + polished piece of wood furniture.
This is a great way to protect a favorite piece that you already have or help out a great vintage find that needs some assistance. To see How To Refinish a Table click here.
