Modern Conscience Wood Restoration Kit (Tung Oil Finish)

Modern Conscience Wood Restoration Kits. These handy little kits contain everything you'll need to restore the wood finish on your classic pieces. These are the same products we use in-house. The kits contain a 1/2 pint of either raw tung oil, tung oil finish, or waxed base solution. We all three methods for such restoration in-house. These are all industry standards for wood finish conditioning and restoration. The tung oil finish will require fewer coats to quickly achieve a medium gloss. While a wax based solution gives the restorer more freedom to build a finish ranging from matte to gloss over more time with several coats. Raw tung oil requires the most patience with several days long dry time between coats and lots of buffing required.

Instructions, sandpaper, steel wool, and lint-free cloths are also included. Each kit includes enough product to handle an average restoration for four to six chairs. If a more aggressive restoration is required plan for the kit to handle about two chairs.

The best way to determine the generation is to identify the glides required. The first generation is a solid leg with a screw-in dome-of-silence glide. The second generation is a solid leg with a slide-on boot glide. The third generation is a tubular leg with a slide-in nylon swivel glide.

You'll also be able to determine which shockmounts you require by matching yours to the vintage examples below. Carefully examine the shape and details on the shockmount, the tabs, and the screw type.

Please note that the generational divisions and styles are not a perfect system, they are a good way to begin to understand the age of your chair. There are some overlaps and blurring between the generations.
