    Actually coconut oil on oil furniture will bring the shine and color tones to come through. Always test a spot before you start.

    Refinish wood furniture. Coconut oil moisturizes wood and brings out its natural colors. Sand the furniture, wash it with soapy water, let it dry, then use a clean, dry rag to rub on coconut oil. Leave it for 15 minutes, then buff the table by moving a soft, dry cloth in wide circles across it.


    Just as a furniture polish: To make wood furniture really shine, combine 1⁄4 cup melted coconut oil, 4 tablespoons distilled white vinegar and 2 teaspoons lemon juice in a reusable spray bottle and shake well. To use, spray on wood furniture and wipe away with a clean cloth.

    Twice. Be careful of build up. Its a oil that needs buffing.

    I rubbed olive oil onto kitchen cabinets after cleaning them before putting my house on the market. Made a huge difference.
