Behlen Furniture Refinisher will easily remove shellac, varnish or lacquered finishes. Quickly melts through the old finish without stripping the wood of its natural oils and patina. It can be used for restoring a worn piece of furniture or to renew a favorite furniture piece. It makes an excellent afterwash for furniture that has been stripped using conventional furniture strippers. Furniture Refinisher leaves the wood rich and warm, free of residues that can turn wood whitish, as do many other refinishers.
