Restore Furniture and Give it New Life With Howard's Feed-N-Wax

In this video, we restore some old furniture, that was found in a barn, back to its former glory. Restoring furniture can add to the furniture's value and could lead to you making quite a few more dollars. You'll want to try Howard's Feed-N-Wax on your furniture to remove that dirt, and see if it can help your vintage furniture like it did ours.

Restor a finish then feed and wax. Made my $5 flea market dresser find into a $400 profit.

I just bought Feed-N-Wax today. I love it.

Very interesting! Sorry if this is impolite, but the word you want is "liberally" not "lucrative". Lucrative means "very profitable". Liberally means to use a glob of it, use a lot. Thank you again for this great video.

I agree with the other poster, clean with Murphy's Oil Soap to get off the dirt and dust, then after it dries, use Restor A Finish and then seal with the Feed N Wax for the best results.

This stuff works great. Used it on some old cabinets with Howard's orange oil. 👍🛠️

LOVE Feed n wax! It DOES darken the wood... and it is BEAUTIFUL!

I think the word you want for "lucratively, " which means in a way that produces a lot of money, would be closer to copious amount, ample, profuse, or substantial. Thanks! It's a great product. I've been using it for years - Restore A Finish, too.

I prefer to use TSP (Trisodium Phosphate, the real stuff, not the "TSP substitute" they sell in home stores) mixed with some hot water to clean up old furniture. It will cut through grime and grease ten times better than any regular dish soap or similar product. You can get a large single bag of the powder for $15 or so and it will basically last a lifetime. You're going to want to avoid any painted surfaces, metal, or glass/ceramics with it though. It won't immediately etch brass or anything that severe, but it could cause some discoloration if left to sit for awhile.

Thanks for showing how this works, this will save me a bundle of coins!

Thank you so much for your wisdom! I learn so much from your videos! God bless you. As an educator, I hope you will receive what I share with the same sentiment with which it was sent. When you say "apply lucratively" I think what you actually mean is: apply liberally. Lucrative refers to money, while liberal refers to an abundant amount. Thank you again for your teaching. Looking forward to trying the Howard's furniture products!

If you are on a tight budget, use a finger to apply, let it soak at least 20min before using any material. The wood soaks up the liquid & you polish it up after the fact.

Hi thank you exactly what I was looking for. I purchased a 1970's Henderson server that has some top damage some little chips and water damage. My question is should I lightly sand top and restrain? I tried restore in a test area on a corner, and it improved but not as much as I woul've liked. I plan to use restore and the bee wax on the rest. Appreciate your advice.

the only thing i worry about is will my cats just sit there licking the furnature because they like the smell.

[fngrrew]

Can I use this wax for laminate floors or will it get gummy?

[inkblue]

Thanks for a great video. I have an expensive old wide-board mahogany desk. It has small moldy spots all over from dampness in a storage unit. Would you recommend Restor-a-Finish, then Feed-N-Wax or just the Feed-N-Wax? All opinions appreciated!

[petestaint]

Fantastic! How often do you need to reapply?

[carolentringer]

"liberally", not 'lucratively' 😊

[Krislovesantiques]

Can this product be used on wood floors?

[roguepetunia]

Are you saying “barn fine” or “barn find”? Thanks!
