how to care for veneer furniture

Sauder products are a laminated finish, not a veneer. You can use dust spray to dust your furniture. Spray it on the rag and then wipe the furniture.

I use a dry dust cloth. If something spills, I take a damp cloth to it. I've had it now for a couple of months now, and love it!

The structure of the cabinets built with study wood and all panels and doors are birch veneer over ply wood. A large percentage of the vanities you find in market places are manufactured in the same way. The cabinet itself is protected with multiple coating of paints.

I've used the leftovers from my kit on two difficult surfaces. One was the veneer side of a bathroom cabinet that doesn't get any wear, and it looks fantastic. I also used it on a laminate coffee table that gets constant daily use, and it's doing extremely well, too.

I really don't know, but I will say this... it is ALL ABOUT THE PREP. Some of my cabinets needed sanding, some were fine with the product they provide in the box for use with the scrubbie pad. If I was going to try it on a veneer I would probably sand.

It's a clear liquid, a little oily. Squirt it on a damp cloth and polish furniture & wood. Then wipe again with a dry cloth. It makes the wood beautiful.

Hi Katrina, This is from the blog post "How to Install and Remove Furniture Guards" on our website at www (dot) mayapplebaby (dot) com:If glue residue remains on the wood surface, use your finger tip to rub a few drops of vegetable oil, such as olive oil, onto the wood and work in circles until glue comes loose; use a paper towel to remove any remaining tape or glue. You may have to repeat this a few times. For surfaces other than wood, you could try using rubbing alcohol (first check the guidelines of that particular surface). We do not recommend using alcohol on wood surfaces.A shorter version of this is can be found in the instructions included in the Safe Corner Cushion pack.Thank you,Mayapple Baby / Roving Cove Hi Katrina, This is from the blog post "How to Install and Remove Furniture Guards" on our website at www (dot) mayapplebaby (dot) com:If glue residue remains on the wood surface, use your finger tip to rub a few drops of vegetable oil, such as olive oil, onto the wood and work in circles until glue comes loose; use a paper towel to remove any remaining tape or glue.

I don't believe it to be Veneer. it is solid and this cabinet looks very nice looking. I have it in my kitchen as a buffet.

I think what may suit your needs better is BriWax. Use it with 0000 steel wool - both to put on and rub off. Use a clean piece of steel wool after this process and your cabinets will polish up beautifully. I use it on all my older furniture to remove dirt or dullness that comes with age. It comes in colors but I always use the neutral/clear "color." It will take some "elbow grease" but you won't be disappointed.

No. It doesn't have a veneer finish. It is stain directly on wood. It's nice.

Yes. This product works wonderfully on veneer wood. However, like any other cleaner, be careful not to soak the veneer. Too much moisture makes wood swell and that can cause veneer to lift, crack, or wrinkle off the base surface. Be sure to wipe away excess and keep veneer out of direct heat or sunshine for longer lasting beauty in your furniture.

Spray the furniture w/ cleaner then scrub w/ a horse hair brush or a car wheel brush to clean in crevices then spray off w/ a good pressure hose.

You will need to sand. How much is dependent on the current finish of your furniture. If it is raw wood then go ahead and sand to 150 grit and then apply your stain. If you have a finish on your furniture then you would have to remove that for the new stain to turn out properly. In that case it may be easier to paint.

Hello, Thank you for your inquiry regarding our product. I can tell you per the package instructions you soak the veneer in hot water so it can be molded for maximum fit and comfort. **This product is not a "denture" or "dental device." It is only intended for intermittent use when you want to enhance your smile. Additionally, due to its hygienic nature, this product is non-returnable.

I get it close to what I want then use sander to make it flush ... I patched the top of a vintage table where the veneer was coming off, then chalk painted, looks amazing

It depends on the finish. If they're finished with a thick, glossy polyurethane spar varnish, you're basically cleaning plastic, so this might be okay if you make it dilute enough. If it has a rubbed oil finish, a degreaser will strip the finish. If the finish has become too degraded, you might need to strip it, but using a water-based degreaser will raise the wood grain, which is not desirable. You'd be better off cleaning with lemon oil and then applying a finishing oil. In any case, your best course is to follow the manufacturer's care instructions.

I have this table in Yuma Arizona. I use either teak oil or olive oil as required. The wood does dry out but has done well. I am a winter visitor so it is not exposed to hot summer sun so that may extend its life. It's a beautiful set.
