How to maintain a solid wood coffee table

‌The maintenance of a solid wood coffee table mainly includes the following aspects:

‌Daily cleaning‌:

‌Dust cleaning‌: Wipe the surface dust with a dry cotton cloth regularly to keep the table clean. For dirt that is difficult to clean, you can wipe it with a wrung wet rag, but be careful to avoid moisture residue‌.
‌Oil stain treatment‌: For oil stains on the dining table and coffee table, you can first wipe it gently with detergent, and then wash it thoroughly with clean water‌.
‌Avoid direct sunlight and humid environment‌:

‌Direct sunlight‌: Solid wood furniture should avoid long-term exposure to sunlight to prevent the wood from discoloring due to oxidation, or even cracking or deformation due to excessive temperature difference‌.
‌Humid environment‌: Solid wood furniture should try to avoid humid environments to prevent the surface of the wood from getting moldy after being damp‌.
‌Regular maintenance‌:

‌Apply beeswax or wood wax oil‌: Regular use of beeswax or wood wax oil for maintenance can enhance the hardness of the furniture surface and achieve a waterproof and wear-resistant effect. It is recommended to use wood wax oil for maintenance every three months, especially at the two ends of the table top to prevent cracking and deformation. When applying, gently apply along the wood grain on the surface of the large board table, so that the external water vapor can be effectively isolated from entering the wood interior, which is both beautiful and moisture-proof.
‌Oil maintenance‌: Oil maintenance should be applied every six months. Even for the seemingly smooth veneer or melamine tabletop, it should not be polished with a scouring pad or steel brush to avoid damaging the paint and causing the paint to fall off.
‌Repair scratches and dents‌:

‌Repair small scratches‌: Use sandpaper of different grain sizes to polish gradually, and finally apply natural wood wax oil evenly and fully absorb it. The pressing time should not exceed 10 minutes, and finally wipe it carefully with a dry cotton cloth or sponge.
‌Repair dents‌: First moisten the wood surface with a damp cloth, and repeatedly iron it with an iron in a wet state several times to fully expand the wood fibers. After the wood is dry, polish it step by step with sandpaper, and finally polish it finely with fine sandpaper.
