The vinegar isn't helping except perhaps to replace one odor with
another. You may not like this but leave the cupboard doors wide open and
wait for the finish to cure a full two weeks.

Good Luck.

How can I get the strong odour of stain and varnish out of an ash
cupboard so it can be used. I'm using vinegar in a dish but it
doesn't seem to be doing much. Opening the doors doesn't help either
or does it just take time?

Thanks
