I am feeling like I am either mopping it too much a week, or too little.
Sometimes it will be clean, but if I run a kitchen wipe over the floor…the wipe is still black like there is hidden dirt. I scrub on my hands and knees, and still don’t get a wipe to come up clean.
Am I taking the “white glove” test too seriously?

Most cabinet refacers said that I couldn’t get a painted , glazed “old world – tuscany look” as a kitchen refacing since the surrounding veneer would be costly to match. However the last refacer said that it would look just fine to put the door over the box ( the wood color complements the door) , using the same hinges. Would this look odd? He insists that it would not yet I can’t find questions regarding this approach to save costs and to ultimately get that old world look for your cabinets. Please advise and thank you!

We are selling our vintage kitchen in the home we just purchased. Below you will find the details on the kitchen.
We have found the original blender that attaches to the counter blender hookup. This cabinet set is in pristine condition, but will need some restoration (they were installed in 1953). A set like this is extremely rare. All have original serial numbers still inside the cabinet, including a push button lazy susan. ALL of these were way ahead of their time in 1953.
