easy to see you’ve done a bit of this by the tipping it to the garbage can suggestion and also the lac thnr wash. Only thing I would say about the Minwax products are they are not very good quality for my tastes. I make my own stain using oil colors and paint thnnr. I can mix and blend easily. Once the job is said and done, I use a good paste wax, Butchers, Old Masters ,Trewax to name a few. But never Minwax, as it does not buff up well and remains greasy. Even Briwax is better than Minwax.
Wow this video was “nice”.

If you really want to restore furniture, or wood of any kind go to The Victorian House Products and buy the one you need for your project. They have been in business for over 30 years and they know about wood. Check it out. I have used all the products for years and my whole house is full of antiques and wood cabinets, floors, woodwork. Just find a home show in the area and they have demos too. Doris
