Surface Preparation

Application
Choose the Restor-A-Finish color that best
matches the finish of your wood. Apply with
a small pad of cloth, or (for severe scratches
and white rings) apply with super fine
(0000) steel wool. For carved surfaces, you
may use a small paint brush or soft
toothbrush. Do not pour directly on finish.
Always wipe dry. When using steel wool,
always rub with the wood grain. Finishes
vary in hardness, so test pressure to be
used with steel wool on an inconspicuous
spot. Cover a small area at a time and wipe
dry. For best results, wait at least 30
minutes and then apply a coat of Feed-N-
Wax to protect & maintain the newly
restored finish.
Thinning
Apply at can consistency.
Precautions
Always test in an inconspicuous area to
check results. Do not apply polyurethane
over Restor-A-Finish. Do not apply Restor-A-
Finish to imitation wood finishes or use as a
stain. Be careful to protect fabric, carpets,
or linoleum when applying Restor-A-Finish,
as it may leave a permanent stain. If spilling
does occur, immediately scrub area with
soap and water or a stain remover and wipe
dry. Be sure to apply to a small area at a
time when using Restor-A-Finish. Always
wipe dry. For additional safety information,
consult the Safety Data Sheet for this
