I have inherited an antique bureau that belonged to my great-great grandfater. I’m guessing that it’s circa 1870 or so. I had to refinish the top because of some extensive damage to the finish and it turned out beautifully with Formby’s. I was going to leave the bottom alone and just clean it good with Murphy’s Oil Soap – but when I did it became hazy with a terrible build up. Apparently it had a thin layer of wax in places and I succeeded in dulling it. I have tried to use other cleaners to get it off and have even buffed it with very fine steel wool – all to no avail. My question is whether I should just give up and refinish the whole thing or if there is something else I can do to restore it. I am told that refinishing it will take the value out of it since it is an antique. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!! It would be best if you could reply directly to my email address of [email protected]. Thanks!!!!!!
