    Re: Dull finish on dresser, re perfume spray?

    Old English is essentially mineral oil with a scent and sometimes a tint added. It will not benefit your furniture in any way and the only harm it will do is it will attract dust. Since it does not dry, over time it will build up dirt. This can be removed with Wood Elixir. A very light application of Wood Elixir every 6-12 months and intermitant cleaning with a damp cloth is all that's required.

    : I have a Pennsylvania House cherry dresser that
    : is about 27 years old. I've always cleaned
    : it with Old English furniture polish.
    : I've noticed that the finish is terribly dull
    : and lifeless in the past 2-3 months. I
    : also keep my perfume on the dresser and
    : wonder if the spray from the perfume may
    : be causing the finish to dull. Or, is it
    : Old English build-up?
    : In any case, do you have any ideas how I can
    : improve the appearance of the finish of
    : the top of my dresser?
    : Thank you for your time and attention to my
    : problem.
