Looking for guidance on how to clean our kitchen cupboard doors and polish them. They appear to have a wax type finish. Should I clean by wiping down with Methylated Spirits and then applying U-Beaut's Traditional wax?

How about polish reviver, click on the ubeaut logo above you to the left for where to get it.

I redid all my TO doors and added some new ones to match.

I completely stripped them first, sanding to 400 grit then used a Cabots spray on poly - 3-4 coats over to finish.

IMHO you cant go past poly in the kitchen as you are constantly wipeing them. also the slight yellowing you get with poly gives the TO a nice warm glow.

EDIT I should add that they were originally varnished not oiled as yours apear to be.
