[DIY] Old Wood - a little OT

 

In our barn/home we have a lot of old wood, trims taken from antique pieces etc  The bathroom has two large antique wall mirrors; it does have new vanity though. The old wood is slightly rough and collects dust like a magnet, especially in the corners of the base molding which is close to impossible to get to and really clean. I vac, scrub with a brush but nothing really works.  This morning I hit on the idea of using some furniture polish so it would be smooth and easier to dust off.  It looks better but not sure if it will repel dust or attract it.  I do have to add a new coat of stain on all the wood in this room.  Is there a stain that incorporates a waxed finish?  Or a sealer I could put on that would be smooth enough to dust off, rather than the duster & cloth catching every few inches.  Seems like if the wood was smooth it would be easier to clean.  I love the look but am about ready to bring in a a pressure washer :)


Thanks, jan
