Percarbonate of soda is very effective in restoring shine to old wood tarnished by time.
For furniture, do not hesitate to apply the mixture with a brush, it will be easier.
And it also works to sober up wooden siding and clean blackened wood.
Unlike many commercial products, this mixture does not contain harmful chemicals.
This trick works equally well with exterior wood, such as for example the terrace and garden furniture (chairs and benches), as it does with interior wood for the parquet floor or a wooden desk.
Bonus tip
If you don't have baking soda at home, know that you can also use sorrel salt to sober up wood.
Unfortunately, this solution is not without risk for the environment because oxalic acid (sorrel salt) is not biodegradable.
So use this recipe only if you have no choice:
1. Put on gloves.
2. In a bowl, put 4 tablespoons of sorrel salt.
3. Add 1 liter of cold water.
4. Mix.
5. With a sponge, apply the mixture to the tarnished wood.
6. Leave on for 10 to 15 minutes.
7. Rinse with clear water and abundantly.
8. Wait 24 hours.
9. Apply a protection to the wood such as wax for example.
