No prep! Does a great job!
Would RecommendRestor A Finish did a pretty good job making water and heat spots disappear from my kitchen table. I liked that you didn’t need to sand the table in preparation! Still have some spots that didn’t totally go away, but it was definitely worth the money!

Liquid youth
Would RecommendSimple and fast! Shake and ready to use. I had some original cabinets that had started to show some aging. This product gave them new life and reversed the aging and made them look brand new again.

Good product-I don’t hate my cupboards anymore
Would RecommendMade a big difference in our old cupboards. Bought a house with some real wear and tear on the cupboards, was trying to talk myself into painting or restaining them when someone recommended this. They aren’t like new but so much improved and the process was so quick and easy. Would definitely recommend. Next I’m trying on some furniture.

A furniture professional told me to buy this
Would Recommendi've used this product before and it's magic. It makes even the most water stained and icky wood look way way better. It makes normal wood that just needs some perking up look great. A friend who is a professional Furniture restore recommended it after I begged him to do some work on a piece of my furniture. He was right. It got the wood to where I needed it.
