Balds Original Wood Balm - Red Top

I recently purchased a rosewood table at auction which was quite neglected with scratches and watermarks. I decided to purchase the balm after reading the good reviews. After trying to get rid of as much of the grime from the elaborate carvings I used the balm and it gave it the most amazing sheen, like adding a clean vanish to it. The sheen is less noticeable after using another cloth to buff it but it has transformed the table. The scratch marks, which exposed some of the lighter wood, have been covered somewhat and the shine has somewhat made the watermarks less noticeable. The balm won’t remove watermarks on wood which already has a lacquer or polish finishing but on wood like mahogany it will do an even better job. Another reviewer said it looks like soy sauce, which is true With similar consistency. The only gripe I have is I wish there was something like a plastic stopper inside the glass bottle as the mouth is quite wide and you can easily pour out too much balm if you are not careful. That’s why I always screw the top back on after tipping out a little balm, in case I knock it over. I also bought the version for lighter wood which I haven’t really tried.

Easily applied looks great but needs constant renewal Can't remove every mark but realistically better than other products I've tried

Does wood good. Not cheap but brings old stained marked scratched wood back to life. Make sure you get the right version for the wood you want it for.

We have mahogany Stag wardrobes and dressers and with the passage of time they inevitably get scratched. You buy scratch cover but it really doesn’t. You buy blocks of this and liquids of that but again they never seem to work as you want. We bought this because we hadn’t tried it before. Unbelievable. Amazing. Something in this day and age that actually works. Perfect. We ended up hunting out other bits of mahogany and dark wood in the house. Highly recommended.

Cleans and polishes quality wooden furniture/wood products. Smells good, though you should avoid sniffing this product. Easy to apply and polish off. I use gloves when applying. I’ve used this item for many years.

Great for polishing my wooden floors as well as the furniture wonderful smell too

I'm very impressed with this product. I have a lot of Chinese mahogany furniture which I bought in Hong Kong about 25 years ago and it has suffered sun damage over the time. When I applied this balm with a soft cloth, I was amazed at just how brilliant it was! Although it looks like soy sauce in the bottle, when you put it on the cloth it comes out almost clear (I've attached a photo of the brand new cloth I used so you can see what I mean). At first, it's not immediately clear that anything is happening but it then seems to seep in and the colour of the wood comes back to life! You can see from the photo what a difference it makes and that's after a single application. Really chuffed to have discovered this product. It's well worth the price and I'm keen to revitalise the rest of my furniture now. It's a joy to use!

When our order came one bottle was unfortunately broken, this was replaced within 24 hours. We have had Balds before it works.
