Hello Detlef, The shield is scheduled to arrive on Monday if everything goes right and I will post them then. As this is my first large wooden piece what should and should not be done to it as far as cleaning and preservation? I was thinking of wiping it down with a cloth dampened with a mixture of distilled water and Murphy's oil soap to remove any loose dust or dirt and then giving a good coat of Ren wax. Is this an acceptable way of treating it or is there a more prefered way to go about its cleaning?
