Yesterday, I went and got some Simple Green and tried it on the back of the cabinet. This is after I'd scrubbed a decent area with a toothbrush and Murphy's Oil Soap. I was amazed and disgusted by what came off the back of that cabinet with a little SG! Ugh! So after I found that there were no adverse effects, I started using the SG on the cabinet to clean it. It's like it's stripping the tobacco tar off the cabinet, but it's not hurting the wood or finish at all. It's really disgusting how much tar there is on this poor cabinet. Once I have it all cleaned, I'll polish it up nicely. But it might take me a week to get it cleaned up; what a mess!
