Hello there,
I did a search on Google and thought I would also ask around this newsgroup to see if anyone had any other ideas. My great-aunt died on the weekend :-( and I brought home her china cabinet. She was a heavy smoker.
The china cabinet is a smaller version of the one my mom has - it's from the 1960s and it has a...hmm...veneer of some sort. I'm not sure what you would call it, it looks like a fake cherry finish - very dark in colour, but not spotty like walnut.
I don't want to damage the finish on it. The back of it just plain particle board, and I'm not sure how I would wash that off. So far I have tried a little bit of Mr. Clean and warm water. Paper towel after paper towel is black and brown :-(. It seems kind of endless :\
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thank you, Christine
