Howard Restor-A-Finish Walnut RF4008 Restore the Original Finish on Wooden Furniture 236ml

I have many years of professional furniture restoration and revival experience but new, clever products are manufactured all the time. I bought this Restor-A-Finish to try out on an inconspicuous area of an 18th century walnut bureau which had been light damaged. Of course, I was anxious not to destroy its antique finish and character of age. I would normally use a mixture of turpentine, oil and meths to clean and a little wood stain if necessary. I am truly astonished at the result which I have now used over the entire surface, following the instructions of wipe on and then wipe clean the surface. It is not a scary dramatic stain at all and the walnut colour I used is true to the lovely aged walnut you would hope for. I reapplied on the paler bleached veneers and they are now perfect. I will leave a while and then apply wax. This is a genuine recommendation and I am sure it will not damage your furniture surface. I did not have water stains on this piece but I can believe it will work without affecting the patina. .

Excellent product I am very impressed with the results.

Good coverage. It didn’t get the candle burn out but covered light patches and light scratches.

Great quality, easy to use, looks good.

Used to tidy up some vintage loudspeakers and really pleased with be result! Very quick and easy to apply - it was a low-effort way to make them look almost new. Would definitely use again. One small bottle goes a long way! I used Feed-n- Wax after which gave a lovely shine.

After looking at YouTube videos I had high hopes this would restore a badly sun bleached early 1900’s sideboard. I used four O’s wire wool and it did do some good but not to the extent seen in the many on line demonstrations. A bit disappointed.

Wow! After the builders made a mess of the parquet flooring, renovating my late Dad's house, ready for sale, I never thought I'd get it back to what it was previously. One rin of this and a whole lot of elbow grease later and it's back to it's former glory.

I have a spot on my walnut table about the size of a plum. It reflects light on a bright day. Not any more. Used across the whole table. No not white spot. Would recommend. Whole table looks better than new.

Volgens ons is het een soort olie want het doet niet wat er gepromoot wordt. We hebben het meerdere malen geprobeerd maar het werkt niet. Jammer

Bin absolut begeistert, lässt altes Wurzelholz an uralten Schränken wie neu aussehen, Gerüche sind weg, schmiert nicht und glänzt

Tried on the inside of the door and it got sort of a grayish foggy look. Did not use it in the end. Used the wax that we bought at the same time as this one instead and that made a huge difference on the doors.

Excellent product with wonderful results. I have used it many times

Ich denke die Bilder sprechen für sich. 1 mal mit einem weichen Baumwolltuch aufgetragen und gleichmäßig einmassiert, trocknen lassen und fertig :-) Werde zum Schutz noch ein Bienenwachs auftragen.
