Restor-A-Finish vs This Trashed MCM Table... Ai Was Right — The Results Are Insane
I found this MCM Lane end table at the Goodwill Outlet and it was rough — scratches, faded finish, mystery spots, even a split leg. Instead of stripping and sanding for days, I grabbed a can of Restor-A-Finish and some Feed-N-Wax to see if I could save it. I'd never used this stuff before and had no idea what I was doing.
