Does cooking oil shine wood and whats wrong if you cant?
Question:
Answers:
Cooking oil has a tendency to turn rancid and stink...you wont want this on your furniture. After a while, it also becomes sticky (think of the cabinets around your stove).
What you want to get is called "Kramer's Best Antique Improver". I had an antique Bombay chest that had mold damage from being in an area that had been too humid. This stuff make it look like there was nothing every wrong with it. It's been a blessing on all my furniture. It may smell a bit, but it sure is worth it!
What's wrong if you can't...what??
It's been my experience that the cooking oil on my kitchen cabinets has had the opposite effect! I like the "orange" cleaning products to get that stuff off. My mother used to polish our furniture with boiled linseed oil. She refinished furniture and used it in place of varnish, so that failure to use a coaster didn't turn into heart failure because of the effort she put into it. I don't think that works if furniture is finished.
It will shine anything you put it on. It will also go rancid in a short period of time and stink.
