## Overview

## Description

Restor-A-Finish penetrates faded lacquer, shellac, and varnish finishes to bring back the original colour and luster. It restores the depth of grain in wood finishes, going much deeper than temporary 'scratch cover' products. Restor-A-Finish penetrates and permanently restores most wood finishes without removing any of the existing finish. Restor-A-Finish maintains the original 'patina' of an antique finish, maintaining its character and value as an antique.
White heat rings and water marks, sun fade, oxidation, smoke damage, and most other blemishes can be quickly blended away with this simple wipe-on, wipe-off process.
Comes in 9 different colours. If you are uncertain about which color to use, then chose a colour slightly lighter than your finish. Before you go to the extreme of stripping it.

## Features

- Restore Without Stripping: Available in neutral, maple pine, golden oak, cherry, walnut, mahogany, dark walnut, dark oak, and ebony to match your wood finish
- Restores Colour: Brings back the original colour to faded wood finishes and revitalizes the depth of grain
- Blends Out Imperfections: Effectively blends out scratches and blemishes on wooden furniture surfaces
- Removes White Heat Rings: Eliminates white heat rings and water marks from finished wood surfaces

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which color should I get if I have dark expresso color wood?**
A: Their Ebony Brown shade is ideal for modern Espresso finishes.  I've used it to dramatic and fantastic effect.   Great stuff!

**Q: what to use to clean wood first and then after the application of restor a finish**
A: I dust first. If it's really bad, I use Howard OrangeOil Wood Polish first. The Restore-A-Finish actually cleans as you use it.

**Q: Would you recommend this color for a teak dining table? I'm not sure if the other finishes would work better.**
A: I wouldn't, I would go darker on teak.  This stuff does not really add any color like a stain would.  I have used golden oak for kitchen oak cabinets, and dark oak for 25 year old Minwax 230 Early American stained oak trim, and cherry for an antique cherry dininig room table and they all did not "darken" anything.  This stuff isn't a stain and it should only restore any mis-colored spots, if its a dark teak -I would use the dark oak.

**Q: Where can I see samples of the colors of this product?**
A: On the website

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From old, unsightly ruin to glorious, richly hued antique
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 12 May 2026*

I can’t believe this exists. Unbelievable difference with little effort; have used this extensively to restore unloved, scratched and sad looking wooden furniture into the beautiful antiques they now are. Utterly mind blown at how brilliant this stuff is

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Gentle But Effective Product for Antique Furniture
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 6 June 2026*

I have many years of professional furniture restoration and revival experience but new, clever products are manufactured all the time. I bought this Restor-A-Finish to try out on an inconspicuous area of an 18th century walnut bureau which had been light damaged. Of course, I was anxious not to destroy its antique finish and character of age. I would normally use a mixture of turpentine, oil and meths to clean and a little wood stain if necessary. I am truly astonished at the result which I have now used over the entire surface, following the instructions of wipe on and then wipe clean the surface. It is not a scary dramatic stain at all and the walnut colour I used is true to the lovely aged walnut you would hope for. I reapplied on the paler bleached veneers and they are now perfect. I will leave a while and then apply wax. This is a genuine recommendation and I am sure it will not damage your furniture surface. I did not have water stains on this piece but I can believe it will work without affecting the patina. .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 26 July 2024*

It does what it says - restores furniture. Leaves a nice glossy shine. Some superficial marks disappear but others remain. I don’t have the time at present to use wire wool to get rid of deeper marks.
