There are several methods for cleaning hotel furniture. The soap cleaning method involves wiping wooden furniture with warm, mild soapy water using a soft cloth or sponge, letting it dry completely, and then applying furniture wax to make it shine. The milk cleaning method involves soaking a clean cloth in expired milk and wiping the wooden furniture to remove dirt, then rinsing it with clean water. The tea cleaning method involves wrapping damp tea leaves or cold tea in gauze and wiping painted furniture to make it clean and bright. The beer cleaning method is suitable for oak furniture; take 1400 ml of boiled light-colored beer, add 14 grams of sugar and 28 grams of beeswax, let the mixture cool, and then use a soft cloth to wipe the furniture. The white vinegar cleaning method involves mixing equal parts white vinegar and hot water, wiping the furniture surface, and then scrubbing vigorously with a soft cloth; this method is suitable for the maintenance of mahogany furniture and the cleaning of other furniture stained with ink.
To maintain hotel furniture, it's essential to prevent dust accumulation. For high-end solid wood furniture such as mahogany and teak, the carved and decorated areas should be cleaned regularly with a brush or vacuum cleaner to avoid dust buildup affecting aesthetics and accelerating aging. Alternatively, a damp cloth and mild detergent can be used for cleaning. To keep wooden furniture moisturized, use professional furniture care oils. The natural orange oil they contain is easily absorbed by the wood fibers, locking in moisture, preventing cracking and warping, and nourishing the wood. For rattan furniture, if there is accumulated dirt, it can be wiped with salt water to remove stains and maintain the rattan's softness and elasticity. When cleaning and maintaining furniture, ensure the cloth is clean. After cleaning, turn the cloth over or replace it with a clean one to avoid repeated friction that could damage the glossy surface. To maintain the furniture's shine, use furniture care spray wax and cleaning and maintenance agents. Care spray wax is suitable for various materials such as wood and polyester, while cleaning and maintenance agents are suitable for wood and glass. Shake well before use, spray from about 15 cm away from a dry cloth, and then wipe. The cloth should be washed and dried after use. For fabric furniture, use carpet cleaner and maintenance agents; vacuum first, then spray a small amount onto a damp cloth and wipe. Direct sunlight should be avoided to prevent localized fading of wooden furniture, cracking of the wood, or fading and drying of rattan.
