As an important part of the home, the maintenance and repair of solid wood furniture is also a problem that we need to pay attention to in our daily life. Solid wood furniture is more susceptible to burn marks, scratches and discoloration than furniture made of other materials. Next, we'll take a closer look at how to address these issues.
For the repair of burn marks on solid wood furniture, we need to take some simple steps. When the lacquer surface of solid wood furniture is burned by fire, we can wrap them in a fine-grained rigid cloth with the help of matchsticks or toothpicks, and then gently wipe the scorch marks. Next, we can apply a thin layer of wax to the burn marks, which will effectively lighten the burn marks. To enhance the repair, we can also apply a thin layer of clear nail polish after waxing.
If the solid wood furniture is accidentally scratched, but the scratches do not touch the wooden part below the paint film, we can use a towel dipped in the melted wax liquid and apply it to the paint film wound to cover the scratches. Once the wax has hardened, we repeat the same steps, repeating several times. In this way, we can gradually cover up the scratches and restore the smooth surface of the furniture. When applying wax, be sure to use a dry towel and not a wet towel, so as not to affect the repair effect.
White solid wood furniture is the first choice for many homes, but they are also prone to staining and discoloration. If the white solid wood furniture has changed color over time, we can wipe it with a dry cloth dipped in toothpaste. When wiping, you need to be careful not to use too much force to avoid damaging the paint surface. Alternatively, we can also stir the two egg yolks well and spread them evenly with a soft brush on the yellowed areas. After drying, we can carefully wipe it clean with a soft cloth.
If there are oil stains on solid wood furniture, it will be more difficult to repair. In this case, we can try pouring an appropriate amount of white vinegar into the water and applying the mixture with a sponge to the oil stains. Finally, we need to wash and let it dry.
In short, the maintenance and repair of solid wood furniture requires us to be patient and meticulous. By mastering a few simple methods and techniques, we can effectively deal with problems such as burn marks, scratches, and discoloration of solid wood furniture. In daily life, we should pay attention to the maintenance of solid wood furniture, regular cleaning and waxing, in order to prolong its service life and make home life better.
