I don't think you would want to use water on the wood. Better to wait and get something that is good for wood such as Murphy's Oil soap. Short of that I think you could wipe the surface down gently with Mineral Spirits or Turpentine. But please be careful and try just a small area first. I think the Pledge would best be used after you have applied Howards or Olde English.
Please take your time on this cabinet. It has waited this long for you to come along and rescue it. I'm sure there are plenty of people on this site that could give you further excellent advice. If not, just wait until you can get to the store and buy what you need. Please keep us posted, we'll follow along.
