How to Care for a Wood Dining Table
A solid wood dining table or a dining table with wood veneers requires careful cleaning and maintenance. You should never use harsh chemicals when cleaning the wood after meals or spills. Proper daily cleaning and routine maintenance will keep your wood dining table functional and looking beautiful.
How to Clean a Wood Dining Table Daily
Use microfiber cloths to wipe down the table and clean it between meals. You can use a mild soapy solution for daily cleaning as long as spills are cleaned up right away. If there is stubborn grime on the table, add vinegar to the solution to help loosen things up. Don’t forget to dust the legs and base of the table, as well as the sliding mechanisms for the extension leaf.
How to Do Deep Cleaning for a Wood Table
Two or three times per year (or more if you have smaller children that tend to be messy), you should do a thorough cleaning of every inch of your wood table. We recommend adding vinegar to the solution in this instance. Use a plastic or hard silicone scraper to remove stuck-on food and grime.
Take this opportunity to wipe down and detail the dining table extension leaf and all of the metal parts that make extending the table possible.
How to Re-Oil Wood Dining Tables At Least Once Per Year
You should re-oil your wood dining table once or twice per year. Sealing the wood with oil protects it and restores its beautiful shine. Before applying linseed or Tung oil, take a microfiber cloth to impossible to buff out food stains, burn marks, and cup rings. Then, reapply the oil to condition and protect it.
