Keep your wood furniture shining and attractive

 
Wood polish servers the purpose of protecting wood from fungal and algae damage as well as decay from water. Wood polish comes in two different types- clear coating and opaque coating. A good wood polish would be scratch resistant and stain free. A clear coating highlights the natural grain structure of the wood. Let’s see how one should go about polishing wood. The basic step involves using a sandpaper to remove all the dirt and smoothening the surface. If required, a mild thinner can be used to remove old marks. Often the colour of pine and cherry wood change after sanding and they do not take stains evenly. Nevertheless, the cracks or pits can be filled using wood putty. Once this is done, the wood is ready for polish. One should know that wood often changes colour after the application of polish. If you deliberately wish to change the colour of wood to match with the interiors, you can go for opaque paints. These come in matt and glossy finish.

Wood polish is an inflammable liquid and should be stored carefully. Proper protection should be taken by anyone who is painting it so that fumes of the spirit in the polish are not inhaled.

Once you have secured your wooden furniture, its time to look towards the wall exteriors. Dulux has a range of paints that have been formulated especially to withstand moisture, heat and extreme weather. Anti fungal paint are suitable for painting the exterior walls of house as well as the bathroom, where the walls remain damp most of the time. These also have a chemical that is dirt repellent and would keep you wall clean for a longer period of time. These paints can also be applied on surfaces which remain slightly damp (but are not saturated), for eg. cellars and porches.
