Work with a artificial steel wool pad because it won't hurt your fingers or get caught about the wood grain. 4. Dip the pad in paint thinner, mineral spirits, or turpentine, and wash the stains. Then gently wash the complete surface, cleaning and dulling it so the new finish will stick. 5. Once you have removed the dark spots and cleaned the surface, remove on an oil-based, clear finish for example Minwax. All clear finishes are low-odor and many are available in either glossy or satin finish. Apply several layers for a heavier end. 6. Make use of a chemical refinisher - a powerful solvent cleaner that dissolves and removes part of the old varnish, if you find you must re-do more than just a couple stained areas. Ask a specialist at your local paint store-to suggest an excellent quality refinisher. 7. When you're using the chemical refinisher, work in small areas, and scrub the finish with a synthetic steel wool pad. The chemical refinisher can take away the finish and even out the color of the wood and mark. To discover additional information, consider checking out: find out more. Rinse the pad in more refinisher when it gets blocked with dirty finish. 8. The cabinet's surface must be clean and evenly colored after you have scrubbed the whole surface.

All the spot color will stay, and the wood will be very clean.

And do not forget to follow all safety precautions about the re-finishing product brands.
