We moved into a new (to us) home recently. The wood bannisters are nearly black in places. Probably a decade of grime. I tried a wood cleaner but it left the bannister very sticky. I tried cutting through it with a 2:1 water vinegar solution and it's made it even worse! I've only done one portion of the bannister so far and am afraid to do the rest.. they may dirty but they aren't sticky.. What should I do? I can't afford to have them refinished.
