--Previous Message-- : The fast answer is yes, Wood Elixir when : applied with steel wool, will smooth and : restore the original shellac finish and : not disturb the hand-grained finish. : What you are describing is a 'faux oak' : finish designed to replicate a : 'quarter-cut' oak finish. This finish is : applied mechanically, with the best : renditions being done by hand. This is : typical of many pieces produced in the : 1920's. It is usually applied over maple : but never over solid oak. : The link below will show a hand-grained 1/4 : cut oak finish with paint splatters on it. : Wood Elixir removed the paint splatters : without disturbing the original graining. : --Previous Message-- : We have an antique solid oak wardrobe that I : thought was real tiger striped oak but : have found that it wipes off when using : another brand of refinisher. Will your : product smooth the "grainy" feel : and appearance on the wardrobe now but : leave this tiger stripe effect? Thanks. : Kevin : : :
