[QUOTE="Daeman, post: 3542554, member: 18361"]Another vote for tung oil. Wonderful stuff. It may not be completely period correct? But it really does make wood look fantastic. I'll be using it on my floors come time to treat them. Along with a few pieces of furniture that have lost their original finish due to past owners efforts to "improve or modernize" them. Good luck with it, I'd love to have a roll top some day, my grandfather had one when I was little, so I'm quite fond of them. Edit: I would say though, it's only original once, so of you don't mind the worn and aged look, consider what was suggested by verybrad[/QUOTE]
