I presume that this applies only to those few speakers that have a wood (or wood veneer) finish. Most others have a synth-wood vinyl finish. Would Howard's be right for those?

@tubewinkle You are correct - but usually, if a speaker has real wood veneer, then it's probably of better quality anyway =)

With the grain not side to side? If that grain is side to side then that speaker was made 10 mins to 5 on Friday night

I have a question, how often do you have to re-apply the Feed n Wax? Would every year be too long, or not long enough?

Like you said with the grain not side to side?

Unfortunately your camera loses detail when you zoom in, but overall a nice demonstration on applying Howard's wood restoration products. There are so many choices out there, it's mind boggling. But, I think I might give this a try. :-)

Let me be the first to comment - Great video. I've got an old set of Sansui's with walnut veneer which I am going to do this to soon. Now I feel happier knowing there is not one bit of sanding involved. The last thing I want to do is sand through the veneer into the particle board.

Showing a closeup of the before would have been nice. Also wouldn't mind seeing a high res shot of it. Too much compression on the video from youtube and it's hard to see the detail.
