Priory Polishes Burnishing Cream is a furniture restoration cream for burnishing French polished, lacquered, painted and varnished surfaces. It helps revive dull finishes, reduce haze and bloom, and produce a beautiful sheen on antique and modern furniture. Also used as a Polish Reviver on older finishes.
Priory Polishes Burnishing Cream is a furniture restoration product designed to burnish and revive finished surfaces on both antique and modern furniture. It is particularly useful on French polished, lacquered, painted and varnished surfaces where you want to improve the sheen and appearance of the existing finish.
The cream can help remove dullness, haze and bloom from suitable finished surfaces and is also used as a Polish Reviver on older finishes. The formula combines the original Priory Polishes Polish Reviver and Burnishing Cream into one product.
Available in 150ml, 500ml and 1 litre sizes.
Burnishing Cream is primarily used to improve the appearance of finished furniture and bring out a clearer, brighter sheen. It is particularly useful after French polishing or on other suitable finished surfaces where the finish has developed haze or bloom.
It can be used on:
Burnishing Cream is a light abrasive, so there needs to be sufficient finish on the surface before burnishing. Always test first in an inconspicuous area.
Burnishing Cream is particularly useful when working with French polished furniture. It can help remove haze and bloom from a newly polished surface and improve the clarity and sheen of the finish.
Apply sparingly and work a small area at a time. Using a soft dry cloth or very fine 0000 wire wool, work with the direction of the grain before buffing firmly with a clean cloth.
For newly French polished furniture, make sure the finish has sufficient thickness before burnishing to avoid unnecessarily cutting into the polish.
Priory Polishes Burnishing Cream can also be used on suitable lacquered and varnished furniture. It helps improve the appearance of dull finished surfaces and can reduce the appearance of haze and bloom.
As with any restoration product, test first on a small, inconspicuous area to check compatibility with the existing finish.
One of the main uses of Burnishing Cream is to help remove haze and bloom from polished surfaces. These can leave furniture looking cloudy, dull or lacking the clarity and depth of a good finish.
Work methodically over small sections, applying the cream sparingly and buffing with firm pressure using a clean cloth. Continue until the desired sheen is achieved.
Priory Polishes Burnishing Cream is also the same formula as our Polish Reviver, allowing it to be used for cleaning and reviving older finished surfaces as well as burnishing newer finishes.
For valuable or delicate antique furniture, always use the least aggressive method necessary and test the product first in an inconspicuous area.
For best application conditions, Priory Polishes recommends an application temperature of approximately 15–25°C in dry conditions.
