1. Typical cleaning (daily or weekly):
Cleaning of wood
The first rules of wood cleaning (which you are often aware of) are not to think of using water alone when cleaning wood! The wood will never be soaked in water, nor wetted, it is porous, and the result will damage the piece or wooden surface as a result of its absorption of water, especially with continuous use. Even coated wood should not be washed with water. Water may damage the paint, and the biggest evidence of this is the ring effects we always see in the cup of tea or coffee on the wooden tables due to the bloating of its wood from its repeated absorption of water.
Regular wood cleaning should be done using a dry cloth, passing it on the entire surface, and a brush can be used to clean the openings and the narrow or carved spaces. The vacuum cleaner can also be used, often with wood-cutting cutters, and performs the task efficiently. A slightly dampened piece of water can be used, but only in the case of painted surfaces, and water should not remain on the surface, but only enough to remove dust or sticking spots.
2. Cleaning wood using vinegar and olive oil:
Cleaning of wood
The use of pure natural vinegar when cleaning wood is a very bad idea, it will leave spots such as those resulting from the use of water, and above the acidic material in it able to remove or abrasion some types of paint insulation of wood.
Vinegar can be used as a powder but in a different way. Combine two equal amounts of vinegar and olive oil, and paint the surfaces of the wood, and you will get the cleanliness of vinegar, and the luster of oil, while preserving the surfaces and isolate from the absorption of water. Slide dry piece to remove excess of solution for better results.
For wooden floors a cup of vinegar can be added to the cleaning bucket (which uses a wooden floor cleaner or a regular cleaning solution) to double the power of discarding the stains and lingering fats. Do not leave the water dry on the floor or you will have undesirable effects and stains from evaporation of water. Once the floor has been cleaned, before the surface dries, use a dry cloth to remove any water before drying.
