Using Home Remedies to Clean Varnish Stains
Vinegar is one of the best home remedies for removing varnish stains. Start by diluting 1/4 cup of white vinegar in a quart of warm water. Dip a soft cloth into the solution and then wring out as much of excess liquid as you can. Wipe the surface of the appliance gently with damp cloth to remove the varnish stains. You may need to reapply the solution several times before the stains completely disappear.
Another effective method for cleaning varnish stains is to use a mixture of baking soda and water. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda with 1/4 cup of warm water until it forms a thick paste. Spread the paste over affected area and let it sit for at least 30 minutes. Once the paste has had time to react with the stain, use a damp cloth to wipe away the residue. This will help to loosen the varnish and make it easier to remove.
Using Chemical Cleaners
If home remedies do not work, there are several chemical cleaners you can use to remove varnish stains. Start by using a degreasing cleaner to loosen the stain and make it easier to remove. Apply cleaner to the affected area and let it sit for a few minutes before wiping away with a damp cloth. You can also use rubbing alcohol or denatured alcohol for tougher stains. Apply the alcohol to the stained area and let it sit for a few minutes. Wipe away with a damp cloth and repeat as necessary.
