<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 1297504, member: 37&quot;]What I see on the drawer is termed <i>alligatoring</i>.&nbsp; It occurs due to exposure to cycles of temperature extremes.&nbsp; The only way to get rid of it is to refinish.&nbsp; On the other hand, it is indicative of age and many do not mind its presence.&nbsp; As above, a good cleaning and a coat of wax will improve appearance.&nbsp; Since you have some delicate inlays, I hesitate to suggest soap and water as I would with most projects.&nbsp; The orange oil is probably a good method.&nbsp; Alternately, there are commercial furniture cleaning products on the market. Extreme wax build up can quickly be cut with mineral spirits if necessary.&nbsp;&nbsp; It will dull the finish if used but this should disappear with a new coat of wax.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
