Subject: Use of furniture polish


Greetings, all,

Are commercial cleaning products such as Pledge or Endust acceptable to use
on
table surfaces? I was wondering whether there is any danger of oil or some
other chemical residue coming into contact with rare books or documents, or
if
there is a product anybody can recommend as safe.

Please contact me off-list if you wish and I will compile replies for all.
Thanks!

David McCartney
