Extract
from: 'A Polishers Handbook" by Neil Ellis
There are
available on the market, a wide variety of furniture
polishes most of these will have either wax or oil as a
base. They may be in the form of a cream, a liquid or an
aerosol pack. The effectiveness of many of these
polishes is due more to the addition of silicone to the
formula, rather than the composition of the product
itself.
Most self
respecting tradespeople would not think of using any of
these inferior products but will instead opt for their
own special formula polish to freshen up and revive
furniture. |
Our Polish Reviver
is one of these specially formulated polishes made from a recipe
over one hundred years old. This is a special blend of secret
ingredients which include pure cider vinegar and linseed oil.
Polish Reviver
will melt away old layers of built-up wax and oil etc. from the
surface of the furniture leaving it like new.
In most
instances Polish
Reviver will:
- Nourish, protect
and enhance the polished surface, giving most furniture a depth
& clarity not seen since it was originally polished.
- Remove water
marks on polished surfaces
- Colour and hide
scratches on non stained polished surfaces.
- Remove or
dramatically fade white rings from heat, alcohol, etc. on
polished surfaces.
HOW DO I KNOW I
NEED TO USE A POLISH REVIVER?
Lightly scratch the
surface of the furniture with your fingernail:
- If it removes
some wax.
You need it!
- If the surface
feels sticky or rubbery.
You need it!
- If the surface
is water marked, or white rings.
You need it!
- If the surface
is dull, dry, faded or is scratched.
You need it!
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR USE.
To use Polish
Reviver first shake the bottle vigorously, then pour enough
polish onto a clean soft cloth to dampen it. Apply evenly to the
piece of furniture and buff off immediately with another clean
soft rag. Second and subsequent coats may be needed for heavily
waxed or oiled furniture.
Very dirty
furniture may need to be washed down with warm water containing
a mild detergent before using Polish Reviver.
For old, dry,
cracked and crazed surfaces, in poor condition, apply with fine
0000 steel wool, making sure to work with the grain. Don't be
afraid to use a little elbow grease, after all the surface is
already damaged almost beyond repair so work it with the reviver
and see what you come up with. You may save the expense and
hassle of a full restoration.
FOR USE IN
FRENCH POLISHING AND RESTORATION.
Polish Reviver
can also be used as a final finish when French Polishing new
or restored work. If you are looking for a brilliant shine allow
the surface to dry hard for a few days. Cut the polish lightly
with a water rubbing compound, buff off with a clean soft rag
then polish the surface with Polish Reviver. This will
not only bring up a brilliant shine, but will also help to
protect the surface from water marking, etc. in the future.
WHAT
ELSE CAN IT DO?
Polish
Reviver has the ability to protect or retard the time it
takes for water, heat and alcohol to damage most polished
surfaces. i.e.: If it takes 5 minutes for a
unprotected surface to mark it could take from a number of hours
to a number of days for the same marking to occur after using
Polish Reviver.
Polish
Reviver can also be used on most white goods and is terrific
for cleaning computer key boards, cash registers, etc that are
dirty from oily fingers, wax, grease, etc, making them look like
new. Use sparingly on keyboards etc do not flood the rag as
moisture may damage internal workings.
