We had painted our kitchen cabinets white last year using a DIY method but it started becoming tarnished and yellowed within a few months. I asked my mother who is a cleaning expert and her kitchen always looks new and flawless. She gave me a few tips and tricks on

how to clean white painted cabinets that have yellowed. I am sharing the same below.

How to Clean White Kitchen Cabinets that have Yellowed?

My mother suggested to me the following steps on how to clean white cabinets that have yellowed. 

  • You can remove all the items from the cabinet and cover the surroundings with any cloth or old newspapers.

  • Then, wipe off the surfaces with a wet cloth to remove all the dust and gently clean it.

  • Make a mild soap solution with warm water and wipe down the surface of the cabinet using a cloth. Focus on the yellowed stains and repeat this process till you get the surface cleaned.

  • You can now make a paste using baking soda and water, and apply it on areas with tougher stains. After you’re done, wipe down the surface with a  damp cloth.

  • Finally, leave the cabinets to dry for a while after cleaning to prevent moisture related issues. 

There are some preventive measures that my mother suggested to avoid yellow stains. I am sharing the same below for your reference.

  • Use UV-protected films on windows. This will reduce the exposure to harsh sunlight. 

  • Make sure the kitchen room is properly ventilated to minimise humidity.

  • Avoid placing cabinets in areas with direct sunlight. 

I hope this gives you some idea on how to clean white cabinets that have yellowed.
