Dear Dan (Covert),

You didn’t overstate the potential of your mother’s remarkable New Life Wood Moisturizer. You may remember that I was one of the media guests who stopped by your table during the HAT travel show last Sunday.

I brought all four of the RAMAX products home with me. Yesterday I used the moisturizer on the dining room table and sideboard purchased by my grandparents at the turn of the century. The mahogany was badly dried out and through the decades, a series of inappropriate furniture poslishes had caused damage I thought could be repaired through extensive refinshing.

After 2 treatments with New Life Wood Moisturizer the results are amazing: The wood grain shines through on the table and the sideboard. By combining the moisturizer with the New Life Furniture Masque applications, old water marks and other scars have disappeared. All that with the delightful fresh orange scent as a most appealing bonus!

I was so inspired I decided to see if the cream polish could remove an unsightly, and seemingly permanent, stain on a formica surface caused by the red foil wrapper on a holiday plant. With only one application the big red blob faded. A quick treatment with furniture masque, followed by a final wiping with cream polish eradicated the stain without any damage to the surface. It looks better than new.

I am happy to recommend RAMAX products and look forward to utilizing the tung oil finish on antique desk I recently had stripped but hadn’t finished.
