Thank you! I took your advice and I bought the Howard's Wax product based upon your recommendation. OMG, my drawers have been stuck since the 1970s and so I rarely open them, except when I want to have a real fight, and this product brought them back to life. I am going to mention you in my positive amazon review!

Easiest solution and no need to remove drawer is to wipe the sides lightly with JOHNSON’S PASTE WAX. Wipe the center guide too if there is one.

Oh, I've tried everything I see on your chest of drawers and still nothing! My drawer is built fit very tightly, so there's no room for any kind of push and pull mechanism. I was looking for some brilliant, yet simple idea. Thank you for your video.

OMG! I have the same furniture in different pieces, a larger dresser and chest of drawers. What really blew me away was that my dressers have this same old floral drawer liner. I bought mine back in 2005 or 2006 second hand. I wonder if your dresser is the long lost smaller dresser that used to be originally together in a set in the same house? Wouldn't that be crazy?

About seventy years ago my father showed me the soap fix. When my kitchen drawer hardware hung up the other night, I tore it out and am in the process of making runners from screen moulding that will be duly soaped after gluing. No screws to raise their ugly heads . . .

@@annegreen-cw3lu There are photos, but I have no idea how to share them. Every time I close that drawer now I have to lift it just a little as I slide it in--and I'm pleasantly reminded of old furniture and old teachers.

@israelamaro9591 3 жыл бұрын

Tried this before minus the wax & wood polisher and it didn't last long. We have a rowdy house guest who slams drawers and cabinets and can be heard in closed door 2nd story bedrooms. It sounds like a kickdrum for cabinets and drawers like when you demo a wood structure or break apart a pallet.

Our new dresser has this wood on plastic sliders. Then there is a center metal on metal guide or track. Neither are lubricated. However, these drawers have a lock so the drawer doesn't come out fully and I see no way to remove them. Any ideas?

@JamiRayVintage 6 ай бұрын

Typically there is a tab on the slide that you can press in to release it. On most slides it doesn’t show up until the drawer is fully extended.
