“Restore It - Don’t Strip It!”
Howard’s Restor-A-Finish is an AMAZING product. I highly recommend this product for anyone looking to clean up their woodwork without the cost of refinishing. It comes in every wood tone. I used the Golden Oak on all my oak woodwork, mantle, doors, window sills, you name it. It does a fantastic job of covering up scratches and discolorations. We inherited a white film on our wood floor in the front hall when we bought our house. Nothing would take it off. One day while I was going over all of the doors and trim, I thought, why not try it on the wood floor. I rubbed it on a small area and was shocked when the film disappeared.
The previous owners must have spilled paint and tried to clean it up with the wrong solvent. The white film was very bad in some areas, so I did have to use a very fine steel wool with it. I went over the whole floor on my hands and knees and it was shining when I finished.
I’ve used the Cherry on all my kitchen cabinets and furniture and it does a GREAT job. Pass the word!!!
The color only looks darker in the second photo because of the time of day each of the photos were taken. It doesn’t change the color, it only enhances it.
You can find Restor-A-Finish at the Fort Collins Flea Market on College Avenue. They also carry different sizes in each of the wood tones.
