The only type of wood finishes that need any "conditioners" are wax or oil finishes. Anything other type of finish, the wood is completely sealed and anything applied to the finish just sits on it never penetrating the finish. If the veneer finish gets a film on it from cooking, smoke, or other air pollutants, a furniture cleaning solution is what you need, not a wax. For painted finishes, something like Meguiar's Instant Detailer works well to clean and shine without leaving a film buildup. Just make sure there's no dust on it to cause micro scratches before using.
Best practices for speaker cabinet care
I have some black veneered b&w's -- cdm9nt -- never occurred to me to consider using some sort of wood cabinet conditioner on them -- i just have dusted them off over the years - and they seem to be 'fine'... but I saw a post about speaker cabinet care - using various brands of conditioner -- and started to think -- have I 'not' been doing what I should have been doing ...
So - question -- what wood conditioners should I be using on my cabinets to ensure they are being cared for ?

Maintaining furniture finish see here! Mike |
I have seven B&W 800 series speakers and they are good with lemon oil. As @oddiofyl points out some are have many coats of varnish like Sonus Faber I only use a swifter on mine. I use white gloves is I move them. They have the most beautiful finish I have ever seen. |
