Polishing Furniture in AC Happy Home Paradise

The polish feature is a new addition in Happy Home Paradise, and it gives your furniture a bit of an extra shine to make them look prettier.

To unlock it, you’ll need to play through the Happy Home Paradise DLC and start completing jobs for your clients. On your fourth or fifth home, right as you’re about to let the client know that their home is done, Niko will teach you how to polish furniture.

To do this, press the L button to change into your polishing clothes. After that, just approach any piece of furniture and press and hold the A button to start polishing. You can let it go after just a couple seconds to give it a nice subtle shine, or keep holding it for an even more obvious shine.

After that, you can start polishing your own furniture back on your island. Just press the L button to change clothes, then hit the A button to get started.

What Polishing Does

Polishing your furniture doesn’t give you any real benefit aside from just making the items look shinier and more distinct. We recommend using it on metal surfaces such as the gold bars or the safe, or even the rock and electric guitars.

This can help your items pop out even more, making your designs look even more impressive.
