One. What should be done if paint spills on carbonized wood furniture?
1、Paint properties
To determine whether this paint is oil-based or water-based, if it is a water-based paint like wall paint, simply wipe it with water or alcohol.
If the paint is oil-based, use the corresponding thinner for the specific oil-based paint (e.g., alkyd paint with alkyd thinner, nitro paint with nitro thinner) to wipe it off with a cloth. After cleaning, remove the thinner as soon as possible.
2、Paint drying and curing
If the surface is also painted and has the same properties as the spilled paint, and the spilled paint has not yet dried, quickly wipe off the large amount of paint with a rag and then immediately clean it with a solvent.
If the spilled paint has already dried, a reliable method is to first lightly sand the spilled paint with sandpaper to remove it, then quickly wipe the area with a cloth dampened with the appropriate thinner for the paint. Since sanding and wiping can dull the surface, avoid rushing. After thoroughly cleaning the sanded area, use toothpaste or a specialized polishing compound to repeatedly rub the treated area, which will restore its shine. Finally, clean the toothpaste and apply a protective clear coat to the treated area to protect it, and your furniture will look as good as new.
II. Cleaning methods for carbonized wood furniture
1、Remove minor stains.
If the stains on carbonized wood furniture are not severe, it can be cleaned directly with water or with general cleaning agents. A brush can be used as a cleaning tool.
2、Egg white cleaning
Use a clean, lint-free cloth dampened with egg white to wipe the surface. This will remove stains and restore the original shine.
3. Toothpaste cleaning
Toothpaste contains abrasive agents, which have a strong cleaning effect. It can be gently wiped with a soft cloth dampened with a small amount of toothpaste.
4、Milk cleaning
Dampen a clean cloth with expired, undrinkable milk, then use the cloth to wipe the furniture, such as tables and cabinets. This method is very effective for removing dirt and stains. After wiping with the milk-soaked cloth, wipe the furniture again with clean water.
5、Cleaning with tea/tea water
Painted furniture may be cleaned of dust by wiping with a damp cloth containing tea leaves, or by rinsing with cold tea water, resulting in a brighter and more lustrous finish.
