Hello everyone,
I’m thinking about refreshing my old KALLAX shelf from IKEA and wondering: Is it still possible to clean the surface of KALLAX effectively after several years of use, so that the furniture looks almost like new again?
I am particularly interested in tips on how to best remove common signs of wear, such as minor scratches, stains, or discoloration that have accumulated over 5 or more years, without damaging the surface.
Are there specific cleaning methods or products that have proven to be effective? Or are these plastic surfaces no longer really receptive to a thorough cleaning, meaning only superficial dirt can be removed?
I look forward to hearing about your experiences and advice on how to clean a rather old KALLAX well again, without having to completely recoat or replace it.

I can confirm exactly that.
I worked with standard household materials, no professional kits. Just a bit of patience, and the result was satisfactory for me (an amateur user), not perfect, but really good for used furniture.
You have to be realistic about the goal and adjust your expectations for the surface accordingly.
