Howard Products RF4008 Restor-A-Finish, 8 oz, Walnut, 8 Fluid Ounces

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!

Game changer! It is a very small amount but it goes a long way.This product is phenomenal!Watermarks on wood flooring dissappear, scuffs and scrapes on wood furniture gone!Be careful, once you get going you won't want to stop. So satisfying seeing the drastically improved look on wood.It is pricey online therefore I would prefer in store purchase in the future.

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 I know they are considered “outdated” but we like the look of natural wood.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.

Great purchase! Tip: Too much product might darken some water spots, but if you only use a very very small amount and rub on cabinets very lightly, water spots disappear. This was the case for me on my light maple-stained cabinets. It worked great!

Water stains gone. Sun damage disappeared. Dull, flat finish no longer. Wish I had taken a before and after.

Prob a good product. Didn’t do for me what it claimed to do with water spots. I’ll further research

Typically have to built Sand and varnish every two or three years. This is a nice intermediate fix and the table looks great, so easy to use.

Great stuff! My husband thought he'd have to completely refinish this coffee table, but look how it transformed it! We're both quite astonished how well it works, and so easy! Apply and wipe.
