The finish can cleaned, sealed and the gloss reduced all at once with the application of Wood Elixir with '0000' steel wool. Always rub in the direction of the grain using complete strokes from one side to the other using even pressure. The foggy areas might require additional pressure.
--Previous Message-- : We have a solid cherrywood table that has been : finished with a catalyzed-conversion : varnish - a very high gloss finish. We : want to restore the finish only. The : finish has some slight cloudy marks (due : to heat) and many hairline scratches. : This table is used heavily each day with : our large family. Our first choice would : be to have a finish that has no gloss to : it - more practical for our family. Would : you recommend using your wood elixir to : enhance this type of finish? Would the : elixir keep the high gloss or can we dull : the finish down? We would like to keep : this as simple as possible. :
