Better than "Old English"
#1

Hi,
I have acquired a floor radio in decent condition. It looks like it was in a nice warm environment without moisture, etc. But it is very old and needs some sprucing up. I used "Old English" on the cabinet and that made a nice difference. However if there was something that would be another "step up" it would help. Bottom line is that I am hoping there is a product that someone could recommend that would take it to that next "step up." Originally I was going to strip and do the whole make over but upon receiving the radio it is beautiful, just "dry" and "dull." Veneer is all there and the original finish has held up pretty good. Thanks!
