Hi, I have a wood dining table which has a satin like finish that I have
been using cork-backed place mats on to protect the table and shine. The problem is that the cork-backed place mats have dulled the shine underneath them. Is there anything I can use to restore the shine? The instructions that came with the table said to just use a damp cloth to clean it. Thanks, Janice |

Or some brasso on a bud, but be careful it is a nice seal as you do not want the rubbing paste to go in any holes in the surface as it will look terrible. HTH |
