Best Answer

Linseed oil is ideal for use on cleaning stained cabinets. Never use linseed oil on painted cabinets. Cover the floor with a drop cloth and open the doors and windows for ventilation. Wipe the cabinet down wit a soft, dry cloth and vacuum crevices to remove all particles. Mix together equal parts linseed oil and white vinegar. Wet a soft cloth in the solution and clean the cabinets, going with the direction of the wood. Use an old toothbrush to get in corners and crevices. After cleaning, allow to completely air dry and then buff with a soft, dry cloth to restore shine. There is no need to rinse after washing.

Why is enamel painting done inside cabinets going yellow?

Probably because the linseed oil in the paint doesn't get light on it. Oil paintings also yellow when put in the dark, but they go clear again when put in daylight. So, if you clean out the cabinets and leave them open for a day or so, it'll probably un-yellow all by itself...

What kind of mineral oil is used on wood cabinets?

I never used mineral oil on cabinets, I would think that will be too heavy to use and will attract dust and dirt. I have mix 60% baby oil and rest white distilled vinegar in a 32oz spray bottle. Spray directly on kitchen cabinets and drawers let sit for 10 minutes then wipe clean. the baby oil is light and do leave a shine and the vinegar actually clean the cabinets. This advice is for oak cabinets only, I never used mixture on cherry, pine, or other cabinets.
