Choose your cleaning products carefully: Avoid using dish cloths or sponges, as they may contain remnants of grease or detergents. Additionally, steer clear of products that contain bleach, ammonia, or abrasive additives like petroleum solvents. Never use scouring pads, steel wool, or powdered cleaners on your cabinets. 

If your cabinets are made of wood, be sure to avoid oven cleaners that could damage the surface. Similarly, avoid using solvent or petroleum-based products such as nail polish removers or paint thinners. Wax should also be avoided, as it can build up over time and alter the appearance of your cabinets.

When placing small kitchen appliances, be aware of the direction of heat flow. Avoid placing appliances where heat is directed onto cabinet surfaces, as this could cause damage over time. 

Finally, be mindful of the moisture levels in your kitchen. Avoid draping damp cloths or dish towels over cabinet doors, as excessive moisture can cause permanent damage.
