Supplies for cleaning a wooden table
Cleaning a treated wooden table
Has your table been treated with a product such as wax or oil before? Perhaps it has become dirty again and is difficult to clean. Above all, do not use products such as vinegar, bleach, or all-purpose cleaners, as these can damage your table. You can clean an oiled wooden table with Osmo Spray-Cleaner; however, if it involves heavy wear or stains, use Osmo Liquid Maintenance Wax. Cleaning with Osmo Spray-Cleaner is suitable for once a week, while the Liquid Maintenance Wax should be used 2 to 3 times a year.
Cleaning a mango wood table
You also want to clean a mango wood table properly to preserve its beautiful color. With Osmo Spray-Cleaner, you can get to work weekly and keep your table clean. This product contains only oil-based soaps that will nourish your mango wood table. If you only clean your table with water, there is a high chance that the lime in the water will damage it. You can prevent this by purchasing a product specifically made for wooden surfaces.
Both the Osmo Spray-Cleaner and the Liquid Maintenance Wax are suitable for all kinds of wooden surfaces, including treated tables. By combining both products, you will have a beautifully clean table on a weekly basis, while also providing the table with its annual maintenance. Using these products, you can even remove stubborn stains, making you happy with your table again. Give your wooden table a refresh and it will look like new again.
Do you have a table made of a different type of wood? Then there is a good chance that your table can also be treated perfectly with Osmo products. Both the spray and the wax are suitable for all types of wood. Are you unsure if your table is suitable, for example because it is a mix of wood and another material? Or do you have any further questions? Then you can always contact us. We will help you as soon as possible.
Treating wear and tear
Is there (serious) wear and tear on your wooden table? Then it is certainly advisable to take action. First, try cleaning the table with Osmo Spray-Cleaner; follow the steps mentioned for a good result. Have the stains not yet disappeared? Then you will need to use Osmo Liquid Maintenance Wax; this product is suitable for stubborn grease stains and will ensure that the wear and tear vanishes like snow in the sun. It nourishes the wood with natural waxes. Apply the product to the worn surface and wipe away any loosened dirt with a dry cloth.
Treating your wooden table
When your wooden table is untreated, stains are considerably more difficult to remove. Some stains penetrate deep into the table, making it virtually impossible to get the table beautifully clean again. For this reason, we recommend treating your wooden table before using it. You will find the right products for this in the Osmo range as well. The best product for treating a wooden table is Osmo TopOil. In addition, this product is also suitable for treating other pieces of furniture such as kitchen countertops, chairs, and worktops.
