Using Gojo Creme on veneer - TheUniversalDave1 - 03-16-2015

I watched a guy on YT do this to his rather nasty looking Philco, and I was amazed with the results! The Gojo Creme is about $2.00 for a good sized jar at your local auto parts store. It cleans the veneer right up! I highly recommend it. Just get a soft cloth and a small helping of the stuff and gently rub it with the grain on your Philco's veneer.

I got it at O'Reilly. They have pumice, but I did not want to use that in case it would scratch.

I just did this with my 40-180. I don't have a before picture but this is the after. I love it and would recommend it to anybody. Works GREAT!

"Washing" a cabinet with go-jo is a great way to remove the years of attic dirt. It gives you a better idea just what condition your cabinet is in and whether or not you want to refinish. 

I have had many cabinets that literally "came alive" after being cleaned with go-jo. 

NEVER use the go-jo with pumice on a cabinet!!

I also use the go-jo first on any cabinet I get that looks promising, no wood damage that needs repair etc.. Have had good luck with it.

I"ve used it on grimey chasses as well.

Found some at a NAPA store.

I found it at Wallmart in the automotive department. [[hand cleaner]

Is GOOP the same stuff? Looks the same and smells the same. Its gojos competitor, I found Goop at Walmart, they didn't have gojo. I use it for my hands. Haven't tried yet on wood cabinets.

Yes  goop is same thing as gojo

I'm assuming that these success stories are on cabinets that were pretty much perfect and just had years of grime build up.

My first to radios were a disaster and Gojo would have done nothing.

I use Non pumice Goop and 0000 steel wool.  I just cleaned up a 46-1203 last night and it came out looking great!  In fact I think I'll change my avatar from the refinished 48-1256 to the original finish 46-1203!
