Interior wood cleaning and maintenance

[luv2sail67]

Hi - we have a 2010 Hunter 38, and find that the interior wood streaks and lacks lustre when wiped down. Can someone share product tips for the best care and cleaning of our cabin wood. We were considering using Murphy's oil soap, but I saw a thread that suggested this causes mould. Thanks!

We use citrus oil or beezee wax furniture polish.

Call Daly's in Seattle and ask them for suggestions. They have supplied the Hunter plant in the past for a number of years. I used a stain on my Hunter 380 from them and it worked well.

Their web page is: http://www.dalyspaint.com

Cherry

Until 2007 Hunter used teak but at the factory in 2007 they said my H-36 was one of the last teak and they were switching to Cherry.
My mannual gives all the info and what to use to maintane the interior wood and every thing else.
I wood look and see maybe a minn wax product.

Have always used Old English lemon oil to keep the wood looking good. We wipe on a coat at least once a year.
