Hi
Im hope someone here can help...Ive scoured the internet but have come up with nothing...
I own a number of pieces of Mexican pine (the heavy/solid stuff). It is in a room with other 'non mexican type' furniture also but around evert few days there is a layer of 'dust' that seems to appear on the Mexican pieces but NOT anything else (ie not on the dado, skirting, windows other furniture)
It gets dusted, and it goes...but then a few days later comes back...
The dust (or whatever it is!) seems to follow the grain in the chairs of the dining table and weirdly only seems to appear on the vertical surfaces (and not table tops etc)
Ive tried 'fiddies' waxing the pieces to see if that helps, but it doesnt seem to
One thing I have noticed is that about this time of year a couple of our solid wood doors start to stick slightly, which I think is high humidity in the house (its about 65-70% at the moment) - the dust problem seems to get worse when this happens??
Has anyone any idea what it is?
Im not trying to get out of dusting! - But you can tell in this room there is a 'dusty' smell until the items are cleaned...!
Thanks
