How to care and maintain Wood Grain Decorative Paper

Tea Solution

Using black tea is an effective way to remove stains from wooden surfaces, and it's especially useful for dissolving waxy buildup on the surface. To make the tea solution, pour a cup of hot water over a few tea bags and steep for 20 minutes. Then dip a cloth or cotton balls in the mixture and wring it until damp. Wipe the wood surface in a circular motion with the tea-soaked rag, rubbing in the direction of the wood grain until the stain is removed. Rinse the tea solution off with plain water and dry the area with a clean cloth.

Rubbing Alcohol or Hand Sanitizer

To remove biro and ink stains, apply a small amount of rubbing alcohol to the affected area. Let the biro and ink stains sit for about 10 minutes before removing them. If the stains are still present after applying the rubbing alcohol, then you will need to follow up with a more aggressive cleaning method.

Alum In Paper

Early paper made from cellulose fibres contained alum, which was added to assist in sizing the papers. Unfortunately, alum is acidic and will degrade the cellulose fibres over time. Inks, which are primarily composed of alum, will also react with the alum and begin to destroy the paper. Fortunately, there are now several alternative papermaking additives that are non-acidic and will not negatively affect the paper's stability.
