Refinish Test

Print VersionBookmarkEmail this page to a friend.
To check on whether you need to refinish or just thoroughly clean older wood furniture, first try cleaning the piece a few times using a good furniture cleaner on a cotton cloth. Let it dry between tries. If the wood finish begins to clear, proceed with cleaning. If it remains dark, marred or alligatored, then refinish.
