does it clean painted wood surfaces like they claim? I use pledge on my furniture but when I try to clean my painted window sills the paint comes off.

I tried it on a painted end table & my paint came off so I wouldn't recommend it. I don't use it anymore, it didn't seem to do as well as pledge. I couldn't tell any difference

No, it didn't clean anything like they show on TV or claim. I was very disappointed in it and do not recommend it.

My overall experience is that it doesn't clean any surface any better than a damp rag would. It's a pretty useless product.

sorry, I have only used it on furniture... it did dry very slowly on there though.

It usually does not take off paint. It may take off a little with lots of scrubbing, but I've very good luck with this stuff taking off all residue without damaging the surface or paint underneath.

Hello Blessed, This is a great cleaner, but I do not think it would be best on wood. Please look for natural wood cleaner/protector. Hope you find something that helps! JAMES

I have. I used Pledge floor cleaner but alternate with water. I believe the issue the manufacturer states with using "soaps" is that it may clog the wick which takes the fluid from the liquid chambers to wet the cleaning cloth. I would just be careful not to use something concentrated or too thick and rinse between cleanings. Hope this helps!

For me, after letting it sit for a minute, it easily loosened a few layers of paint on wood. I don't know how many "many" is, but, I imagine, if you have to score the paint or even apply multiple layers, this stuff would work well. That's my unprofessional response.

It did not leave any residue on furniture or anything in my house. I used it for about 3 hours, and then it stopped working unfortunately.

I have never used it for this. I think you can steam to maybe freshen furniture, but not like stain removal. I love it for Windows though! Hope this helps. I really like mine.

It works great removing paint. It peels the paint. Very Strong. Try something else, if is not paint what you are trying to remove...maybe a degreaser...

No I don't believe so. It does erase small surface scratches, but I found that I had to really scrub the areas to get them to wear off. I noticed that the paste restored a beautiful hard shine to the paint, no damage whatsoever! I would recommend having a lot of clean, dry terry cloths on hand, because when the paste is on the paint, I found that it left a film that I had to constantly go over. Deep scratches I am still skeptical about.

I've put it on furniture and walls and windows. And... I just took one and tried it on the metal of my oven and stove with no issues. Even before I did that I was inclined to say yes. Just remember decals can be removed. So, people peeling and taking them may be an issue and I don't know about a scrub wash over them. Hope that helps

In my experience, this is not a furniture cleaner. It is a replenisher. puts oil in the wood to restore and enrich. If you read the directions, you apply and leave on for an hour or so to let it sink in and then remove excess.

Yes you can clean your living room furniture depending on what type of cloth material it is made out of. If you are asking about the wood on the furniture, I would definitely say NO. You can also "wash down" walls, but keep whatever nozzle you are using far enough away from the wall not to harm it by steaming too much in one place. I have seen Flat & Eggshell (Semi-Gloss) water based painted walls fade quite easily, so be very careful when doing this. Regards, Sasha Customer Service Manager The Mercantile Station You will not want to concentrate the steam in one place very long and use one of the larger steam attachments so you get a much larger mist that is not concentrated in one place.

If cabinets are painted, it will take off the paint. I'm not sure what it would do to stained cabinets. I don't recommend it.

i have only used this product with great success on varnished furniture and cabinets. Works suggest you try on a piece of painted wood first. Lightly sand, and then rub with denatured alcohol, then try the stain. No guarantees but it sure would beat removing paint.

That is not correct. This is a great product. It will actually preserv the finish on any wooden surface. I've been using it on over 500 pieces of furniture on the company that I work for over 5 years with amazing results!!!

I figured it would be iffy as this product is more or less like Goo-Gone; it removes sticky stuff. In my review, I also warned readers that when I attempted to remove a sticker from a lovely wall shelf, it took the finish completely off, so I feared it would ruin the carpet. However, I happened to have a piece of carpet. I sprayed a bit of red paint on it, let it dry and then tried Goof-Off. It did not damage the carpet but it did not remove the red paint at all. I would try rubbing some paint thinner on the spot with a stiff brush, followed by some soapy water on a sponge. This has worked for me in the past.
