Use Murphy's Oil Soap for first cleaning. Wipe down thoroughly. Then get a pile of clean, soft rags and start wiping it down with Naptha. Be sure and wear plastic/latex gloves. Keep doing this until the cloth comes off clean. Now all the old wax, polish, dirt, etc is gone.Now take boiled linseed oil (my choice), or oil of choice, and apply with a 0000 steel wool working with the grain. Don't scrub, just gently and firmly rub it in. Apply it liberally, but be on constant alert for runs, which should be promptly removed. Let soak 15 minutes, then wipe off excess with clean, dry cloth. Repeat the wipe off process several times until there are no pools or wet spots. You can apply a second coat if you want, but it's really not required. Let it harden for a few days, then buff it out with clean, dry cloth.
The look of hand oiled walnut can not be beat.
