The purpose of decorating a house is to create a cozy and harmonious living environment. Therefore, when choosing wooden doors, people usually spend considerable time selecting the one that meets their expectations.

Next, Chunhui will teach you some tips for maintaining wooden doors at home: four taboos for cleaning wooden doors

1. Avoid washing with water. Wooden doors are sensitive to water. It is not advisable to wash wooden doors with water, nor should damp cloths be left on the surface of wooden doors for extended periods, to prevent moisture and deformation.

2. Avoid scratching with a knife or sharp objects. Wooden doors and their surface paint are easily scratched, which not only affects their appearance but also poses more troubles when the tide rises in the future.

3. Avoid scratching the surface of the wooden door with hard cloths or scrubbing sponges, for the same reason as above.

4. If it is a glass door, when wiping the glass, be sure not to let cleaning agents or water penetrate into the gaps of the glass gasket to avoid deformation of the gasket.

Five recommendations for cleaning wooden doors

1. Wipe with a soft cloth. When there are less serious stains such as fingerprints on the surface of wooden doors, you can try wiping them with a soft cloth. It is economical, convenient, and practical.

2. Clean with professional cleaning agents or other suitable products. If the stains on the wooden door are too heavy to be removed with a soft cloth, you can use a neutral cleaning agent, toothpaste, or a furniture-specific cleaning agent (available at stores that sell wooden doors or furniture)

After successful decontamination, a clean soft cloth should be used to wipe it clean to avoid recontamination. If a wet cloth is used for wiping, it is best to use a dry cloth to wipe away the water droplets on it.

Caution: Do not leave cloths soaked in neutral reagents or containing water on the surface of wooden doors for extended periods, as this may damage the surface and cause the decorative materials to discolor or peel off.

3. Use a vacuum cleaner. This is mainly for cleaning the dust on wooden doors, especially in some hard-to-reach areas. A vacuum cleaner can clean them thoroughly.

Note: When using a hair dryer, it is recommended not to blow hot air directly and closely onto a specific area of the wooden door for an extended period of time, as this may cause the affected area to dry out, resulting in paint peeling and cracking

4. Use a hair dryer. A hair dryer can be used to blow on small areas that cannot be wiped with a soft cloth. Additionally, it is more effective for removing labels from wooden doors.

5. Netizen recommendation: First, try cleaning with a cleaning solution. If that doesn't work, try using pine oil, which is available for 3 yuan a bottle at paint stores. Of course, if the wooden door has been in use for a long time, it may not be effective.

If it cannot be cleaned no matter how hard you try, it is recommended that the painter repaint it.

Daily use and maintenance of wooden doors

To maintain the glossiness of the wooden door surface and extend its service life, regular maintenance, including cleaning and dust removal, should be carried out on the wooden door.
