Turns out, all those spilled beer is exactly where they should be! Some ways you can use beer to polish wood funitures and floors:
Basic polish: pour some flat beer onto a microfiber rag and rub it into wooden furniture to add some shine and deepen the color.
Boil together
one quart of beer
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons beeswax
Cool, then wipe onto your furniture. Let this dry. Polish with a soft cloth.
Antique wood with beer: Traditional dark beers will create an antique wood effect far quicker.
Highlights
- Chestnut dark mild beer has the strength to stain the wood, premium lager would do nothing.
- Sand off the layers of polish or varnish.
- Must use CLEAN CLOTH for staining. Dip cloth into a dish of dark beer and rub onto the surface of the wood.
- Let a corner of the clean cloth soak into the dark beer and sit the beer soaked cloth on top of the wood for an uneven finish look that antique wood have.
- Add a light coat of varnish to seal the color in when you have the color you want.
