I used it on a raw, stripped cedar chest. It looks fine. However, it has to be re-oiled fairly often to maintain the beauty of the wood.

Sounds like you need Howard's Restor-A-Finish not Craftsman Lemon oil...Howard's is a great product and you can get a finish to match your wood. Look online and you'll get info about this product. Lemon oil is just a polish - I don't know what results you will get with it on unfinished wood. I restore antiques but am not a professional.

I don't use anything special, just use a damp cloth to clean first and dry with a microfiber cloth. You can google in the internet "5 ways to care for a wooden dining table".

I've not had good luck with this product in this regard. It does not take stain like real wood, and when once I used it to fill the large pores of an antique mahogany buffet top, no amount of stain would obscure the cream colored lines and dots all over the surface!!! So, I had to strip the top a second time. I'm not please with this product. It also sets up too quickly for some smaller projects. It's probably just fine for rougher projects and ones where painting is the desired finish.

You could but it might damage the finish on the wood. Try it out in the corner. You need to soak it into a paper towel and leave it on for about five minutes. If you change the soak time you would get different removal. Might just work.

I've never used on wood. This product is designed for automobile paint for light duty work. I would check with a furniture refinisher to see if this polisher is appropriate.

Yes! I have used this product for years. I also use it on my good wood tables and it has never damaged anything comes right off and can be reused over and over. It comes on handy to keep the grand kids from knocking things over.

Have used this product on furniture in similar condition. I always use steel wool to remove the old finish, then I use an soft old towel to wipe off the mess. A lovely patina will remain in the deep grooves, but if you don't want that you will have to get down into it with a soft toothbrush.

Hi.This is oil so it should be applied to bare wood. The wood absorbs it and that creates the water resistance that you want for outdoor furniture. Oil of any kind rubbed onto finished wood would just create a greasy surface.Hope this is helpful.-Nik

i'm not too sure about putting this on a veneer. ask the company directly - they were very helpful with me. i used arm-r-seal that had a driftwood stain. i would think, if it comes in a clear, why not try it. i love,love this product. i have spilled wine, put hot plates on it and so far, it's still durable - no scratches, no stains.

i have only used this product with great success on varnished furniture and cabinets. Works suggest you try on a piece of painted wood first. Lightly sand, and then rub with denatured alcohol, then try the stain. No guarantees but it sure would beat removing paint.

I did use it on our wood and glass end tables. I have not removed them yet as our son is 16 months old. But I do believe the 3M tape that comes with it will not harm the wood finish. I might suggest using Goo-Gone when the time comes to remove the 2 sided tape. Hope this helped! Enjoy your day!

You'll still want to apply a standard finish. This just colors the wood, it doesn't protect it in any way

I use this product exclusively on my Mahogany Duncan Phyfe Dining table with no ill effects. The man that made the new top for my table (I wanted a wider, bigger table, so I used the original pedestals and had a new top made) insisted that we use only Oz on the wood. It cleans nicely and does not leave a waxy residue. It hasn't effected the finish or the quality of shine at all. If it works on my table, it should work on your cabinets as well. BTW, I've used Oz for three years.

I have not had the chance to use this product yet but I would assume since the product is solvent based, it may not be wise to use on a greasey surface- Im not sure the product would cure properly, but if the surface is finished and not slick, it shouldnt corrode the finish on the wood. Maybe do a test on a small area like underside something and dip a q tip into a throw away plastic cup that has some of the material sprayed into it before applying it allover.

Read the directions and/or call the company. I would not use it on wood furniture personally. I use it for stainless steel only.

There is a finish on the wood - but it can very easily be sanded off. So, if you do end up sawing off the end, you can just sand the table to remove the finish from the entire table. Once the finish is removed, you might want to oil it, though.

I also haven't used this product as of yet. I would ask a paint professional such as Lowes or Ace. They have very knowledgeable people there...or test it on a old piece of wood! I believe that your paint top coat has to be flat paint . Also try YouTube; there is a ton of videos on there! Good luck!
