Received from a satisfied customer in Forney, Texas…

Dear Dan Covert,

A fortuitous event happened recently, I was cleaning out ans old closet and found a bottle of your product – New Life Wood Moisturizer.  I had been despairing of the condition of an antique console that I use to store my CD’s and DVD’s in.  It was looking much worn and dry with years inside with central heating.  I thought what the heck, I’ll try this stuff.

Man…

miracles still do happen!

I took the drawers out and began applying the “magic fluid”.  After one application, the console looked better.  I ended up giving it about four applications over 2 days and the piece looked brand new!

I was thrilled!!

Now I want to use it on all my wood pieces.  You and your product have created a “renewal Fiend”.  Thanks soo much!

Sincerely,

Randy Lawhorn

I work a lot with antique furniture at my shop. It is in my best interest to find the best furniture treatment I can find. A a result I have spent many years trying many furniture waxes and oils for their effectiveness. I have bought every wax and polish I can find in order to test them and see which is the best. I line them up and test them side by side.

The New Life products that I have come across win by a wide margin.

My goal was to find a furniture treatment that is easy to put on, looks great and most importantly keeps up its appearance the longest.

New Life Cream Polish was the best in all three categories. Your New Life Furniture Masque is also amazing for removing build-up without damaging the natural age patina and original finish. Cream Polish and Furniture Masque are my dynamic duo. Both products have paid for themselves many times over when I take into account the time I have saved over similar products. Both are also great on metal and plastic.

All of my friends that have used the New Life products gush with compliments. I have not heard a single complaint. New Life products are 50 to 100 years ahead of its time.
