Any idea if this product is similar to the one offered by Cory Products
(Fine Wood Restorer)?  Any other input out there?

Thanks,

> I suggest some Howard's Finish Restore.  It wipes on with a rag, shines it
up, colors minor scratches and makes an old finish look good again.  It's
not a polish or wax, but dries and becomes part of the finish.  Home Depot
carries it.  Good luck.
