But Target also sells 7th Generation cleaning products now... try those. They are about the same price as Method. Also, I use Shaklee. They are completely non toxic and awesome. You basically buy one bottle of the cleaner and all it takes it a couple of drops to 16oz of water and you have a full bottle of cleaning solution. I use it on EVERYTHING! My wood tables, my tv, my leather couches and counters. It's so safe that my kids can spray it in their faces and nothing happens... because it's like 99% water. But I think it cleans fine. No, it's not like soft scrub or lysol. but nothing is. So if I want to disinfect I just spray the 91% isopropyl alchohol on things like the toilet, doorknobs and anything NOT WOOD that we touch. That disinfects just fine. Anyway, Shaklee is available online or thru a distributer. You buy one bottle for like $30.00 (yes I know...) but it lasts for a few years. I SAID YEARS! Because you only use a few drops per 16oz of water. So add up the price of all the cleaning products you will buy in 3 years and I bet it comes to more than $30.00. AND IT"S TOTALLY SAFE FOR EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE:) WOOT! LOL Ok. I'm done now. <em>angel's last blog post..<a href='http://thequeenofdrama.wordpress.com/2008/01/29/fact-or-fiction/' rel="nofollow">Fact or Fiction</a></em> I use and love Method.

I use microfiber rags and then toss them in the laundry. Glad things are well- we missed you this week at GNMParents!

You can get several types of natural ingredient polishes, some are based on beeswax and some on orange oil. I'd definitely try a commercial one first to repair the damage, then if you want to, try your own natural polishes (on an inconspicuous place!) till you find one you like. I read about trying jojoba liquid wax as a polish which you can get at a health food store. It's surprising the amount of oil that wooden furniture can soak up and not be greasy after a few hours. <em>theotherbear's last blog post..<a href='http://uncaringbear.blogspot.com/2008/01/if-i-had-band.html' rel="nofollow">If I Had A Band</a></em> I think you’ll have to use a proper furniture polish to put the shine back on the table.

One day, a friend of mine (who is a high fallootin' scientist, and definitely educated enough to be BELIEVED) pointed to my high cupboard, which was chock-full of the noxious bleach chemical products you mentioned (and that I was in love with), and said, "IF YOU KEEP USING THESE, YOU WILL GET CANCER AND DIE." And you know what? She's probably right. Definitely melodramatic, but she has a point. In high doses, many "household chemicals" can be extremely toxic... Vinegar ROCKS. MY. WORLD. Straight-up, or watered down in a spray bottle. It cleans and disinfects just about anything. Not on wood, though. Just plain water, and a soft cloth, then buff it dry.
