I have new cabinets. We had them custom built and they were to us a specialties coat for sensitive people. They are still off gassing after 3 months. We do not want to re topcoat them. Would any of your cleaning or no glass wipe on products be of any help and ok to use on wood varnished doors? SAMPLE - AFM SafeChoice, Lock Out Odor Blocking Sealers

This is a common experience. Unfortunately, all of our sealers and paints which will block VOC emissions require 2 topcoats. None of our other cleaners will magically accomplish this. If the finish is an oil-based varnish, then you will need to use two coats of shellac (Zinsser BIN waxless shellac) first as that is the only type of product that will adhere properly and block the VOCs. Then any one of our products such as AFM Acrylacq should be used over the top.
