How to Clean Wooden Doors Kitchen - OldEnglishDoors
1. DIY Network
DIY Network’s post “How to Clean Wood Cabinets” had two different strategies to handle general and deep cleaning kitchen cabinets.General cleaning:
- When faced with how to clean greasy cabinets, the go-to natural cleaner is vinegar. Combine a 50/50 solution of warm water and vinegar and put it in a spray bottle. Let sit for a minute or two, then wipe clean with a soft cloth. Mist on the cabinets.
- This move will be optional. To clean highly grimy cabinets, apply a few drops of liquid dishwashing detergent to the vinegar and water solution.
Deep cleaning:
- Create a vinegar paste with salt. Dip a toothbrush and rinse the stained area gently. Don't clean too hard or use steel wool, since wood is scratched. With clean water and a clean towel, rinse the paste off.
- Backing soda may also be put on a wet sponge and the stain scrub. You can not scratch the cabinet surface with a gentle toothbrush or a nylon breeze pull brush.
- Mix vegetable oil and vinegar in equal portions and apply it lightly on the cabinet surfaces. Rub it in with a clean, soft cloth. Buff till it shines.
2. Everyday Cheapskate
Mary Hunt, the columnist behind Daily Cheapskate, asked the reader what kind of cleaner to use in wood kitchen cabinets with the following answer:- If you're looking for a commercial product to clean those cabinets, you're never going to beat the efficacy of real orange oil polish to melt away grease, grime, polish, and wax buildup, leaving a fresh fragrance and beauty in its place. It's going to cost you a little to do your whole kitchen if you plan to go on a commercial path.
General Cleaning:
- In a spray bottle (I use these 16-oz bottles for homemade cleaners) mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 4 tablespoons of white vinegar, and enough warm water to fill the bottle (about 2 cups). Shake to blend, then spray on the front door or drawer at a time. Scrub with a soft cloth, then shrink it with a good shine. to remove dirt. Give a shake to keep the oil mixed before any spray.
Deep cleaning:
- In a small bowl, weigh 1 portion of vegetable oil and 2 pieces of soda (for example 2 tablespoons of oil and 4 tablespoons of soda, or 1 cup of oil to 2 cups of soda, depending on your work size).
- Mix it into a thick paste with your fingers. Smoosh it a little at a time on the surface of this greedy cabinet, taking into account in specific places close to handles and human touch.
- Scrub this paste into the grain with a smooth rag, sponge, or fingertips. To get it in all the nooks and screws use an old toothbrush. It is really thick and it will fall off, along with a lot of grace, when you start scrubbing and brushing
- Then step back and admire your lovely work with a softer fabric.
3. Grapes and Splendor
Blogger Grapes and Splendor had a different home-grown recipe to make your kitchen cabinets tidy - but not harmful!General cleaning:
- Combine a 1 cup of water solution, 1 tea cubicle dental paste, and 2 teaspoons of soda. To immerse the solution and clean the dirty areas of the enclosure, use a sponge or tissue.
Deep cleaning:
- Place on the scouring sponge approximately 1/2 teaspoon of dish soap or oil soap cleaner. Wet the sponge and scrub the cabinet so that a lather is created. Wipe it with fresh water in a slightly damp towel. Dry it with a cloth or microfiber.
- Create a paste with baking soda and water, apply it in a circular motion to the greasy regions, force it gently into the grate to raise the grate using the baking soda abrasive, and allow 10 minutes to swallow. Remove the baking soda paste by wiping it off with a damp piece of clean cloth.
