waxed furniture.

robertpearce

 I have waxed furniture in my living room and a solid fuel burner .Every time i dust ,the wax finish seems to suck the dirt into the grain of the wood , is it soot from my fire? why does it stick to the surface and WON'T come off? Help, anyone?

Not sure but was the item, something you up cycled?  I have done this and the wax is smooth and not sticky when rubbed in and then buffed. I only wet dust I don't use furniture polish , though I don't know if that makes a difference. Plus I don't have a wood burner!😕
Sorry not to be able to help more, I know some of the lovely people on here do have, plus have up cycled,  so should be more help.
