I've used Restore-A-Finish (RAF) to clean up some antique furniture. I read about it in a thread here from Moonshadow and it works great. I will try to find a link to the info.

Now that Garden Web has moved things around, it's much harder to find what you want. Here's the thread. It's buried under the 'Craigslist' heading in my clippings.

Here is a link that might be useful: Reds clipping of Moonshadow's commentary

Thank you Redbazel, the information was very helpful.

I saw RAF at HD last night. I was not sure how it would apply to my needs and of course, no one with any knowledge was there to help me.

I think an independent paint store would carry RAF and will check it out today. There I know I will find someone to answer my questions.

I was trying to avoid using a hazardous product but it looks like I may not be able to.

I'm flattered you tucked away my suggestions, Red. ;D

Very nice chairs jerseygirl! Definitely avoid Murphy's, it can 'gum' up finish on wood. Another cleaner I've had luck with is Formby's Deep Cleansing Build-Up Remover. Smells great, too ;) I use that, then the RAF, then the final Beeswax.
