Wood Maintenance
- Blood on unprotected wood should be washed immediately. Lightly wet-sand and swab with hydrogen peroxide.
- Clean oak and mahogany by wiping with a cloth dipped in warm beer.
- Cover minor scratches with a generous amount of petroleum jelly. Leave it on for 24 hours. Rub into the wood, remove the excess and polish as usual.
- Have scratches marred your teak? Rub the meat of a pecan into them.
- Control mold in teak with a mixture of 4 parts bleach to 1 part saltwater. Scrub with a brush across the grain, not with it, then rinse with saltwater.
