Maximum shine refinishing involves coating the surface with an oil-based product to enhance and preserve the sheen.

This is an option to consider if the stains are not causing significant damage and a total refinishing would be cost prohibitive.

Although hardwood dream restoration surface countertops are nonporous, it is possible for a dark color to stain the finish. This is typically caused by minerals from hard water or food like mustard, coffee or wine that may leave a discolored streak or mark behind. In most cases, a small amount of CLR (for hard water stains) or vinegar (for food stains) can be used to clean the impacted area. If these products do not work, the stains can usually be removed by gently rubbing the affected areas with a light abrasive like SoftScrub(r) or diluted bleach (3/4 liquid household bleach mixed with 1/4 water).
