Re: Reviving a Finish
I tried it on the top first, as I'd originally planned to refinish it, it was so bad. Anyway here is a before and after. I used a bit of white spirit on cotton wool buds to remove the white paint specks first, and some wood soap to remove some of the tar like dirt on it. I then used fine wire wool to rub the restorer into the finish, let sit for 20 seconds and wiped dry. Pretty good results given such minimal effort and experience on my part. I will polish with beeswax polish at some point.
Thankfully the rest of the cabinet is in a lot better state to start with!
