The cabinet is indispensable in the kitchen, and it is also the main force of storage. We can put things in the cabinet, make the whole kitchen clean and play a role. Of course, in the process of using solid wood kitchen cabinets, maintenance can not be ignored, but many people have been in the misunderstanding of maintenance. Let me tells you the correct maintenance method.
Wood cabinet maintenance misunderstanding
1, wash the cabinet with detergent
(1) Dish washing liquid and soapy water seem to be a magical existence. It can wash dishes, wash walls, and wash cabinets. It is really a cleansing agent. In fact, this is just what we think can be used like this. In fact, detergents can’t be done by anything. Using the wrong cleaning products may cause the wooden cabinets to be “destroyed”. Because the material of the wooden cabinet has the ability to absorb water, the common water wiping will cause the wood to swell, deform, and even mold, which not only affects the appearance but also affects the use.
(2) The cleaning products such as soapy water and detergent are corrosive, and the cabinets often come into contact with these acid and alkaline detergents, and the paint surface becomes completely dull. It is even more unacceptable to wipe it with detergent and then wash it with water. It is the rhythm of the cabinet’s “destroyed”, especially the expensive solid wood cabinets. When the wrong detergent is used for a while, the cabinet is broken. So don’t think that you can do anything that can be decontaminated. The cleaning of cabinets must use professional detergents.
2,Wipe the wood cabinet with a dry rag
(1) If you haven’t cooked for a long time, the cabinet will accumulate dust on the surface of the kitchen for a long time. Some people are used to wiping the dust on the surface of wooden furniture with a dry rag. In fact, this may cause friction damage to the cabinet paint. Fiber, sand and bauxite are the main constituents of dust. The scratches on the paint surface caused by these fine-grained materials in the back and forth wipes will start to be very small, and most of them are not recognized by the naked eye.
(2) But after a long time, the surface of the furniture will no longer be bright or even rough. A more scientific method of cleaning is to wipe the surface of the furniture with a soft, damp cloth and wring the rag as much as possible before wiping.
What should I pay attention to when using solid wood cabinets?
1.Pay attention to the cleaning and maintenance of the cabinet surface
The surface of the solid wood cabinet is painted with paint, which is especially important for the maintenance and maintenance of the paint film. Once the paint film is destroyed, it not only affects the appearance of the surface, but also further affects the internal structure of the product. Therefore, the cabinet should be kept clean, and the surface dust should be gently wiped off with a soft cotton cloth every day. At intervals, the dust on the corners of the cabinets can be cleaned with wet cotton thread that wrings out moisture.
Dry it with a clean, dry soft cotton cloth, or apply a thin layer of high-quality light wax after drying, and gently rub the gloss like a leather. This not only maintains the wood cabinet, but also maintains the wood cabinet. Increased its brightness. However, the use of light wax must be cautious, and must not use inferior products containing chemical corrosion components.

When cleaning, do not touch the cleaning tools to the cabinet. Usually, be careful not to let the hard metal products or other sharp objects collide with the furniture to protect the surface from scratches.
3.Avoid removing stains with alcohol, benzine or other chemical solvents
If the surface of the cabinet is stained, do not rub it hard. Use warm tea to remove the stain gently. After the water evaporates, apply a little light wax to the original part, and then gently rub it several times to form a protective film.
4.Avoid wet conditions
In the summer, such as indoor flooding, it is advisable to use thin glue to separate the cabinet from the ground, and to keep the wall of the cabinet at a distance of 0.5-1 cm from the wall.

Outdoor sun exposure should be avoided as a whole for long-term exposure to the whole or part of the cabinet.
