To make the DIY mix, you will need 2 tablespoons of baking soda and 1/4 cup of linseed oil. Start by mixing the baking soda with the linseed oil in a clean bowl until you get a smooth paste.
How Is The Solution Used?
Before applying the mix to the wood , make sure the surface is clean and free of dust. Use a soft cloth or delicate bristle brush to remove excess dirt.
Next, take a small amount of the baking soda and linseed oil paste with a soft cloth or sponge. Apply the mix to the wood, working evenly following the direction of the wood grain. Make sure you cover the entire affected surface.
Leave the mix to act on the wood for about 10-15 minutes, so that the baking soda can act on the dirt and the linseed oil can penetrate the wood. This will allow you to obtain a more effective and long-lasting result.
After the exposure time, remove the excess paste with a clean, dry cloth. Use gentle movements to avoid scratching the surface of the wood . Let dry completely.
To complete the wood reviving process , you can apply a thin layer of clean, dry linseed oil using a soft cloth. This will help nourish and protect the wood, maintaining its natural beauty.
It is important to note that the DIY mix with baking soda and linseed oil is suitable for cleaning and reviving untreated or lightly treated wood. If you have furniture or wooden surfaces with particular finishes or paints, we recommend that you consult the manufacturer’s directions or test the mix in a small inconspicuous area before general application.
