HOWARD - Restor-A-Finish: Restore Your Walnut Wood Finishes Repair Scratches, Eliminate Stains, White Heat or Water Rings and More. Safe on Furniture, Trim, and All Finished Wood. Size: 8 Fl oz

Howard Products Restor-A-Finish is absolutely amazing and worked far better than I expected for restoring older wood surfaces. This product brought new life back to worn furniture, trim, and wood finishes without needing complete sanding or refinishing. I was honestly impressed by how quickly it improved scratches, faded areas, water marks, and dull spots while still preserving the original beauty and character of the wood. The finish looked richer, cleaner, and much more refreshed after just one application. One of the best things about this product is how easy it is to use. It applies smoothly, blends well into existing finishes, and delivers professional-looking results with very little effort. It’s perfect for restoring older furniture pieces, cabinets, antiques, and woodwork that have started showing signs of age and wear. The color match worked very well, and the wood retained its natural appearance rather than looking overly glossy or artificially coated. It helped revive the warmth and depth of the wood beautifully. This product saved me from needing a much larger refinishing project and made several pieces look dramatically better in a short amount of time. For anyone wanting to refresh and restore wood finishes quickly and affordably, this is an outstanding product. Highly recommend Howard Restor-A-Finish for restoring tired wood surfaces and bringing older furniture back to life!

Excellent results! I tried this on an old table I recently obtained & the difference it made was incredible. It hid scratches & dings & left the table top with a beautiful shine. You can see the difference in the picture taken when half the table was done for comparison. Overall, a great product that requires very little for results & is at a reasonable price.

This product while not a miracle worker, did definitely improve the appearance of my late 80’s golden oak cabinets. I know they are considered “outdated” but we like the look of natural wood. Recently they were looking a little worse for wear, dull and dry looking in spots. In the past I have lightly sanded and brushed on a coat of clear poly with good results. I wanted to find something that didn’t require all that drying time. This fit the bill perfectly. It was very easy to apply & even though it warns about the fumes I did not find the fumes terrible. I did run the ceiling fan and opened a window. I have a smallish L shaped kitchen and the whole project was done in about an hour. It took about half the bottle. This product did well as far as giving it a good shine and evening out the color/tone of my most used cabinets that had worn down dry areas. It did not fix most of the deeper imperfections though (like I said, not a miracle product). But for the money and ease of applying, I would definitely use this product again.

Brilliant stuff. I tried one color and was surprised at how easy to use, and how perfectly it works. I have since punched and received a second color for darker furniture and was just as pleased. Get this stuff. you will love it.

Used this product to revitalize a pine bookcase purchased at a garage sale for $3, so did not have much to lose. The bookcase seemed to have been stored in a wet basement or outdoor storage shed so it was in poor condition. A very fine steel wool 0000 pad was used to apply, which worked well removing stains and defects. Total time commitment was less than an hour. The final result was better than expected with minimal investment in terms of product costs and time. Coverage was good, as approximately half of the 8 ounce can was used. As you can see by the pictures, the end result was slightly darker than expected, but still looks great. Thanks, Restor-A-Finish!

Be aware this is a TINY bottle. My fault for not looking at the size, this is 8 ounces, which is half the size of the ones that I found for a dollar more in my local home improvement store! I won’t be buying from this seller again, that is for sure. Having said that, as far as the product is concerned, it is AMAZING. In the attached pictures is the kitchen cabinet door in my apartment, top half gone over one time with Restore A Finish, bottom half only washed. Then are legs of an antique treadle sewing machine, this has been gone over with Restore A Finish, then Feed N Wax from the same manufacturer, I went over it a few times with each product, as you can see, the difference is remarkable. With the sewing machines I restore, I do not want to strip and refinish the existing finish, whenever possible since the existing finish is part of the history of these pieces and I value that history. Restore A Finish evens out and helps to tone the existing finish, to bring it back, without getting rid of that beautiful story the piece carries with it. I have also used it on my inherited antiques to bring out the beauty of these pieces. I highly recommend the product, but do yourself a favor and watch the price and the amount you are getting for that price and shop around if at all possible to find the best price.

This product easily made my weathered front door look really good. The only change I made to the instructions was to apply with a small paint brush that fit into the opening of the product can. Nice result.

This stuff really works. We remodelled a dining room that had dark knotty pine panelling over all the walls. We stored most of the panelling outside and NOT fully protected from weather. After two years of rain, wind & snow, we decided to try to use some of it to make a built-in bookcase. The panelling was pretty ratty by then, but Restore-a-Finish gave it a new life. It's better looking now than when we took it down. It will not really soften a film of finish, so don't expect to re-distribute anything to cover major scratches. However, the colorant in the liquid does a really good job of making scratches and blemishes disappear (I have several cans of an assortment of colors). Best of all, If you apply it with 4/0 steel wool, it cleans amazingly well, and leaves a soft glow on the surface after wiping it off and polishing with a soft cloth. A local museum of antique radios has used it to restore all of their wooden cabinets. Many products make empty promises, but this one follows through. Five stars!

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

Dit product voldoet aan zijn verwachtingen, mijn donker eiken massieve meubels van 45 jaar (mijn huwelijkscadeau!) zijn als nieuw!!! Waarvoor mijn dank!…

a fantastic easy to apply polish with great results

Box container was damaged but product good

Ich verwende es für unseren Küchentisch und bin begeistert. Es entfernt so ziemlich alles an Verschmutzungen und Ränder, es reizt die Atemwege, deswegen bitte Acht geben. Im Anschluss wachse ich den Tisch und er sieht für lange Zeit wieder wie neu aus. Auch beim Aufarbeiten alter Möbel ist dieser Reiniger zu empfehlen. Ich säubere damit jegliches Holz und nach kurzer Trocknungszeit sieht das Holz fast aus, wie neu und kann weiterbehandelt werden. Fettrückstände werden komplett entfernt, z.B. durch das häufige Öffnen und Schließen mit bloßen Händen/Fettfingern, die schwarzen Fettrückstände werden mit dieser Reinigung komplett entfernt; einfach gigantisch. Auch Wasserränder auf Holz habe ich damit schon beseitigen können. Sie kommen nach längerer Zeit leicht wieder zum Vorschein, einfach die Behandlung wiederholen und fertig. Ich bin begeistert!
