<p>[QUOTE="Bookahtoo, post: 11196, member: 31"]I bought a nice vintage hutch to put in my store. It is painted with the doors and the top of the cabinet stained wood. I realized when I started to clean it that the paint, which is green, is supposed to be a nice robin's egg blue. It has a glommed on layer of nicotine and grease, mostly nicotine. So far, Windex, and cleaner with bleach have done nothing. I do not have hot water at the store(owner's too cheap), or I'd just use warm water and detergent. Any ideas on how to get the paint clean? Sorry no pictures.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
