## Overview

Howard Products Restor-A-Finish in Golden Oak is a 473 mL semi-gloss wood finish restorer that penetrates and revitalizes faded lacquer, shellac, and varnish finishes. Designed for quick, streak-free application, it blends out minor scratches, white heat rings, water marks, sun fade, and oxidation without stripping the original finish. Available in nine colors to perfectly match your wood tone, it preserves the antique patina while restoring depth and luster, making it the go-to solution for professional-quality wood restoration in minutes.

## Description

Restor-A-Finish penetrates faded lacquer, shellac, and varnish finishes to bring back the original color and luster. It restores the depth of grain in wood finishes, going much deeper than temporary 'scratch cover' products. Restor-A-Finish penetrates and permanently restores most wood finishes without removing any of the existing finish. Restor-A-Finish maintains the original 'patina' of an antique finish, maintaining its character and value as an antique. White heat rings and water marks, sun fade, oxidation, smoke damage, and most other blemishes can be quickly blended away with this simple wipe-on, wipe-off process. Comes in 9 different colors. If you are uncertain about which color to use, then chose a color slightly lighter than your finish. Before you go to the extreme of stripping it, try restoring it!

Review: Nothing except total refinishing will make old, scratched, damaged furniture look new. But some products have the ability to make it look really good, and this one of those products. I used the suggested 0000 steel wool pads and poured the restorer on the pad. Wiping with the grain of the wood, applying various amounts of pressure depending on the severity of the damage. Once the first round was applied and then wiped off with a clear cotton cloth, I waited 30 minutes and repeated the process. Then did it again a third time. The product really works well, but again, it's no miracle worker. Several thoughts on the product. First off if the finish is chipped or gouged to bare wood, this will not improve that area. You need a furniture color pen to darken the wood, or use a filler and then a furniture pen and blend the area to match. Also start with a light color restorer, (I used the Golden Oak), and if that doesn't work as well as expected you can also go to a darker shade, but you can't go from dark to light. Finally the rags you use as well as the steel wool will be hazardous due to the solvent they retain. Rags with solvent can self-combust so please dispose of them properly. I suggest either soaking them in water before placing them outside in a closed garbage can or in a metal can with the lid tightly closed. I usually have a few empty paint cans from a big box store just for such purpose. The photos speak for themselves. A good product for easy refinishing to a much better finish.
Review: I've been a hobby refinisher of old (some actually antique) furniture for many years. I had mostly used three techniques: (1) strip/stain/varnish, or (2) soften/clean the old finish with a product like Formby's, or (3) fill, sand, and paint. Restore-A-Finish added a fourth option. You just wipe it on over the old finish. It doesn't strip it or soften it or cover it; it blends with the old finish, evening out splotches, white rings, and even scratches. I've been truly amazed more than once at how easy it is to work with and how well it works. It is now my first choice technique. In fact, my garage sale scrounging is now mostly focused on finding pieces that look like they will come back to life nicely with Restor-A-Finish. So far, I have four of the nine colors. It goes a long way, but I'm on m second can of Golden Oak. It's great stuff!

*by R***G on 13 August 2025*

Me sorprendió gratamente el resultado, lo aplique en unos muebles de madera que el acabado estaba bastante bien sin raspones pero se veían algo sucios un poco descolorido y como que el dueño anterior quiso barnizarlos en algunas una zona sin el cuidado adecuado y sin terminar. Al aplicar este producto se restauro completamente el brillo, se le desprendió el barniz sobrepuesto quedando el acabado original, se le quito lo cenizo y los muebles quedaron como nuevos. El acabado no es aceitoso y no colecta polvo. excelente producto.
