Okay Bill or anybody for that matter..... Which of these http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p...x&_sacat=0 in the Briwax lineup is going to be the best?

I have an old can of the "dark brown" that works pretty well.

Other "treatments" I've used with success over the years have been Howard's Restor-a-Finish or Old English (dark). Apply liberally, wipe off, let the set dry a day or two and follow up with some nice (wood) paste wax. I lean toward the Minwax brand because they have a version that is tinted brown. It doesn't really color the wood, but it isn't as noticeable if some traces are left behind in cracks and crevices.

Go ahead and order some Briwax, it doesn't get talked about as much as Howard's, but it deserves a place in your arsenal. One area where it really shines is on Tolex covered items. I had an extra carrying case for a Pilot 3" t.v. that had a pretty beat looking dark brown Tolex covering. One quick application of the Briwax colored in the small missing areas and made that case look almost new. Since the formula has changed I'd better order a can of the old stuff before it disappears like the original Brasso did.
