Not a tip, but a question. I've been using a polish on my furniture which has made the surfaces sticky, and I've tried all sorts of stuff to wash it off (soapy water made with washing - up liquid, washing powder) all to no avail. Can anyone help me ? I'm afraid to use meths as has been suggested for fear of ruining the finish permanently.

To remove smells, like smoke, from wood furniture, I crumple clean newspapers and leave them in the cabinets. Change daily. For fabrics I have put baking soda in small fabric bag, inside a trashbag with the smelly clothes.

use a tumble drier sheet is you run out of polish for cleaning your wood furniture it does a fantastic job and it seems to keeps the dust off for longer it also works really well on the television screen.

To get your patent white shoes clean, use a little non-acetone nail polish remover on them. Buff with a aerosol furniture polish sprayed on a soft cloth. They will look like new, Also, use the furniture polish on high gloss black shoes. It takes out scratches and gives a high shine while repelling dust. Keep polishing wipes at your desk to clean your shoes. You'll always look spiffy!

black spots on wood furniture can indicate mildew. don't just varnish over it, treat it with bleach first and then re-apply the finish

You know you get those indents in carpet after heavy furniture has been there? Well simply put an ice cube on it, as the ice cube melts, the indent will rise.

I found out by accident that spraying furniture polish on trainers makes them whiter (if they were dirty say) so it probably works on other things
