The Ultimate Wood Polish Guide for Furniture & Doors

Wooden doors and furniture bring a royal feel to any home, but they require proper maintenance to stay pristine.

1. Sanding is Crucial

Always start by sanding the wood along the grain using medium-grit sandpaper, followed by fine-grit. This opens the pores of the wood to absorb the polish.

2. Applying the Sealer

Apply a sanding sealer to close the wood grains. This prevents the wood from absorbing too much polish and ensures a smooth finish.

3. Polishing (PU vs. Melamine)

Melamine polish is great for standard interior furniture, giving a glossy finish. For doors or areas exposed to sunlight or moisture, Polyurethane (PU) polish is much better as it creates a hard, plastic-like protective layer.
