Does vinegar remove wood stain?

• <div><p>Vinegar won’t strip the wood stain from your wood, but it can help remove a different type of stain. If you’re dealing with food stains or trying to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-remove-water-stains-wood.htm">remove water rings on your wood</a>, you can use a little olive oil and vinegar (mixed equally) to remove those stains without stripping your actual wood stain.

Q: Can I refinish just the top of a table?

• <div><p>It's perfectly fine to just refinish the top of your table instead of all of it. In fact, that's what most people do. After all, why finish the bottom of the table that nobody ever sees? Of course, depending on how exposed the legs of your table are, you might at least consider refinishing them. </p></div>

Q: Does vinegar remove wood stain?

• <div><p>Vinegar won&rsquo;t strip the wood stain from your wood, but it can help remove a different type of stain. If you&rsquo;re dealing with food stains or trying to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-remove-water-stains-wood.htm">remove water rings on your wood</a>, you can use a little olive oil and vinegar (mixed equally) to remove those stains without stripping your actual wood stain.

Q: What should you not use to clean antique wood?

• <div><p>Stay away from using window cleaners and other harsh cleaning solutions on antique wood&mdash;or any wood in your home for that matter. The pH of the cleaners can break down the finish and permanently damage and stain the wood below. Even when it comes to more durable areas, such as when <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-your-baseboards.htm">cleaning your baseboards</a>, only use cleaning solutions that are safe for porous materials. </p></div>

Q: Why is my wood furniture sticky after cleaning?

• <div><p>If your wood furniture is sticky after already cleaning it, it&rsquo;s likely from using too many polishes or waxes. You&rsquo;ll need to remove some of the excess wax with a cloth and warm water mixed with dish soap. You can then reapply the wax or polish afterwards, but try to use a much smaller amount and wipe away any excess.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to remove the stain before refinishing?

• <div><p>Removing the original paint or stain before refinishing is a good idea, as it ensures the new finish bonds strongly to the wood. If you skip the stripping or sanding step, the new finish may peel or flake away from the railing easily. Using a wood stripper will completely remove the old stain or paint while sanding will help to prime the surface.</p></div>

"The attention to detail we got from the Reverie crew is what impressed us. They didn’t rush through the tasks that were asked of them (interior/exterior paint, landscaping, hauling off, trim, wall patching.) They actually cared about the quality of the work they turned out, and they didn’t leave a big mess behind for us to clean up after. We’ve actually had that very frustrating experience with contractors in the past. We will definitely be keeping Reverie Woodworks in mind for our family’s future projects."
