How should wooden handicrafts be maintained?
time Sep 30,2022
Many people are worried about a problem when buying handicrafts, such as the maintenance of wooden handicrafts. After all, these handicrafts are good-looking and good-looking, but if you are not careful, they may leave traces, which greatly reduces the value of the entire handicraft, and the appearance value will also be affected. Can the solid wood crafts be maintained with wood wax oil? In fact, furniture or craft products made of solid wood can be painted with wood wax oil as long as they are not edible. Solid wood handicrafts are different from ordinary furniture. As ornamental products, they only need to be wiped with wood wax oil in daily maintenance to enhance the gloss and texture of the surface. Many solid wood handicrafts use a mortise and tenon structure, so the structure needs to be disassembled when painting the wood wax oil. Such as the little monkey ornaments, which are purely handmade by woodworking masters, the surface has gradually lost its luster after being placed for a few years, so it is only necessary to apply wood wax oil to brighten it. Before painting, dismantle the handicrafts, use a clean cotton cloth dipped in an appropriate amount of wood wax oil to wipe evenly. After wiping, put it in a ventilated and dry place to dry, wait for it to dry before assembling. The surface of the handicrafts coated with wood wax oil is bright, the surface wood grain is clearly displayed, the hand feels round and comfortable, and the grade is also improved a lot. Can wood wax oil be applied to crafts with a matte surface such as pine cones? Pine towers are the seeds of the Pinaceae plant, which are often used as pendants on Christmas trees, and are also often used as craft ornaments for interior decoration. The pine tower is only used for still life viewing, so it only needs to be painted with wood oil to enhance the gloss of the surface and avoid problems such as mildew in the rainy season. Before the official operation, the pine tower needs to be pretreated. Clean the pine tower as a whole to remove dust on the surface and dry it in the sun to avoid dust accumulated on the surface from affecting the absorption of wood oil. Dilute wood oil with special thinner to reduce viscosity. Since the pine cone is of an irregular shape, it is difficult to wipe and coat, so directly soak the pine cone head down in wood oil, take it out after a short time, and then place it in a ventilated place to dry. In this way, the painted pine tower can be anti-corrosion and mildew, effectively prolong the service life, and improve the appearance a lot.
