What is the best furniture polish?
1 Answer

The best furniture polish depends on the material of your furniture. For instance, for some pieces, an oil would work best and for others, a wax would be better. On unfinished wood, oil is your best bet. Wax is great for a sheen-finish and will last for about a year.
