Before you decide to strip that scratched, crazed or crackled finish, you should try Restor-A-Finish.

There are many other types of amalgamators and products that claim to remove scratches and restore the luster and beauty to a finish. Until now, I have never found one that I can actually say I like enough to use it on my own furniture. Howard's Restor-A-Finish really works! It is so easy to use: simply rub it on with the grain using 0000 steel wool or a pad of toweling. Scratches, crazing, water marks and heat rings simply disappear. It will bring back the original color and luster of the finish. To date, I have tested Restor-A-Finish on a number of pieces of furniture and one box. I have found that if you simply follow instructions, it's very hard to make a mistake. It should perform perfectly especially on old pieces which have been finished with varnish, lacquer or shellac. The only finishes that it is not recommended for use on are polyurethanes, new imitation finishes or water based finishes.

Restor-A-Finish is available in a number of colors: Neutral, Maple/Pine, Golden Oak, Walnut, Mahogany and Dk. Walnut. Available through: Constantine's Wood Center:  www.constantines.com
