"Antique Care" brand oil

Does anyone know if "Antique Care" is still made and if so how I can find
some? A furniture maker told me today to get some to work some miracles on

No, I don't, and I don't care. Not finding it has probaby save you doing
something you shouldn't.

an old, dry cabinet I have. I can't find it through web-search. Thanks in

Wood doesn't "dry out" (n this sense) so you don't need to "feed" the
wood with oil. Ask someone who understands furniture finishing for
advice, not some who recommends miracle products.

What was the old finish ? What is wrong with the old finish ? It's
_meant_ to be dry, so you don't need to go around wetting it. f you mean
it looks dull and scuffed, then there are oily finishes that will make
this look shiny again, but generally they're a short-term minor
improvement and a bad idea longer term. If you have to slather something
on it, a wax is usually less troublesome than an oil.

Don't use the "salad dressing" recipe.

To sort it out properly, you really need to know what the old finish
was.

What kind of finish does this cabinet have?
