can it be used on wood cabinets?

I've looked over the bottle and it doesn't really say anything about wood cabinets. Probably the best thing to do is to test this product on an inconspicuous part of the cabinet to see if it can clean without any damage.

You could but it might damage the finish on the wood. Try it out in the corner. You need to soak it into a paper towel and leave it on for about five minutes. If you change the soak time you would get different removal. Might just work.

Yes! That's the beauty of it. Mine were white-wash stained cabinets initially. I used "000" steel wool pads to scuff the surface in the direction of the grain to remove any gloss and to clean them up (don't kill yourself sanding...the steel wool works great and gets into the crevices). The gel stain is like a paint...it stays on top of the surface...does not really sink into the wood anyway, so as long as you scuff it up slightly it will work fine. Go for it!

I would think it would work fine for that. I used it on finished cabinets with a stain but it rubs in really nice.

I would imagine yes. It did a great job on natural wood which is much softer and more absorbent. I would experiment to see just how long you need to leave it before it softens the shine coat.

I don't see why not, my question would be why? I use this on unfinished wood furniture, it keeps it from drying out too much and soaks into the wood.

I guess you could if the coating is uniform and adheres to the surface. I have only used it on untreated wood.

Yes, but not the best choice. I build cabinets and carry it mainly to repair laminates. If you use it on veneer, be careful about how thick you put it down. Even then you may not get a smooth fix, and there will be no second chance.

I have used it on mahogany louvers, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, in dry and tropical climates. Awesome product. I washed first with Murphy's wood oil soap, then applied two coats. Keeps wood looking like new for years.

This can be used over a gel stain on wood. I stained my bathroom cabinets and used two coats of the polyacrylic satin over the gel. It went on smoothly and effortless. Gave a very nice finish!

I can't say if it's good for your kitchen cabinets. My cabinets are very old mahogany with a low sheen varnish with a lot of mileage...a scratch here and there. I clean the cabinets with a dampened cloth to remove dust/ dirt. Let dry and apply Rejuvenate. They are still old but with a shiny and perky look about them.

Is it wood? Then yes you can use it. It works best on bare wood, if the wood is already painted or stained it will be less effective.

Howard's Clean-A-Finish may be used on white kitchen cabinets, be they painted metal or wood. It is a good choice for use in the kitchen as it removes grease as well and grim without scrubbing. Follow the directions when it states to rub (not scrub) the surface in a circular motion. Do not scrub too vigorously or you may remove some of the top finish on older, weathered items. Let the product do the work.

I will not recommend use on furniture, some of the ingredients can damage the finish of varnished wood.

I used it on cabinets that had been painted black and white. Thought id give it a try before doing extra steps! Didn't strip them or anything and this product worked wonderfully going right over the paint. Did four coats on the white and two on the black. Hope this helps!

not sure, but I use on hard wood. its not a soaking application so I guess it would be ok

We use it on furniture all the time. As long as the finish on the furniture is not peeling, cracking, or chipping, it should work great!
