Cleaning the Area
Option 1: Vinegar
In Figure 2 you can see the boards that have the
mineral deposit on the top of the surface. We
will be using a mixture of water and vinegar to
clean off the boards.
1. First we will need to make a 50/50 mixture of
vinegar/water. We will first start by pouring
water into a bucket as shown in Figure 3.
2. Then we will add the same amount of vinegar
to that bucket as shown in Figure 4.
3. After we have made the mixture and throughly
mixed it together, we will apply the mixture
onto the boards that are effected by the
mineral deposits as shown in Figure 5.
4. After applying the mixture leave it on for at
least 5 minutes to let the mixture get deep
into the mineral deposit, it makes cleaning
much easier.
5. After allowing the mixture to sit for at least 5
minutes come in with the steel wool and
begin to scrub in the direction of the grain.
The strength of the scrubbing will depend on
how thick the mineral deposit is usually
medium strength scrubbing is sufficient.
Note: When using steel wool only scrub in
the direction of the wood grain never ever
scrub against the wood grain.
6. After scrubbing for about 1-2 minutes take
water and rinse the area and dry the area with
a towel to see the result.
Note: It might take multiple times scrubbing
the board in order to get the mineral deposit
off the surface.
Also, quicker results may be seen if you
continuously scrub while adding the mixture
on the effected area.
