Best furniture polish EVER!!! – I have used this product for over 50 years and am still amazed as to how good it is for rejuvenating wooden furniture. I have just finished cleaning up and finishing a mahogany table for a friend and it now "looks a million dollars". It is a bit expensive but well worth the outlay..... Show details

It works really well on previously oiled or French polished furniture – Just did a 1920’s French polished extension table. Worked a treat. Use it for what it’s meant for and it’s a great, cheap product. It Might be slightly over perfumed. Show details

Saved me thousands – I thought I was going to have to re-stain a used pool table and table I bought. The quote I got for re-staining it was $3,000. Instead I polished the tables and legs with O’Cedar furniture Polish and the results were miraculous. Check out the photo (this web site only let me attach one). Show details

Pleasing Result – I have just found 2 unopened 200 ml of this product and have decided to use it on some recently refurbished furniture and I am very pleased with the result. I have also tried it on my piano which I assume is French polished and again I am pleased with the result. I was not sure if they even made this product and as such I looked it up on the net,… Read more

they still do make it and it appears on Product Review. I am using it as per instructions and they do suggest that it be tried on an inconspicuous part of the item being polished first.

Excellent when used as directed but doesn't smell as nice any more – Long time user of the product. It's a polish, it's good. It's not a miracle restoration product nor a magical floor polish as some "reviewers" seem to've unrealistically expected. I use it on all my timber furniture and my speaker cabinets (but not my floors, of course, because it's FURNITURE polish and I can read). It rejuvenates the finish well, is easy to apply,and smells pleasant but I do wish they'd return the smell to the original though.

Miracle polish man cave rescuer – Used it on a blue gum timber bar that was grimey from years of spilt drinks and dust. One coat and wipe it's now looking smick as bringing out the vibrant red grains and fantastic sheen. So impressed I thought I would give it a go on my old pool table i thought I would need to sand back and varnish again. Once again to my delight it brought… Read more

out the beautiful timber colours and gave it a classy shine.

Barely used any of the 300ml bottle will go a long way.

Silly skinny base on bottle, barely stands up – Unpleasant smell, seems to work ok even though quite runny but the silliest is the base of the bottle wobbles all over the place and it says store upright to avoid leakages which is very hard. Why are good products always changed to something not as good. Show details

Horrible. Ditch the new version, go back to original formula manufacturers! PLEASE – I have a little of the original in a bottle and the new. Tried side by side. New one is cheap and dries cloudy, smears. . The old one is made from natural oils and smells wonderful. Dries to a real deep glow Gives a really deep shine! Read the other reviews here. Noone is happy.

Changed formula – I was a regular user of O Cedar. However, the changed formula is runny, takes a long to dry when applying and doesn't last as long. My timber looks tired, dry and worn in half the time. I won't be buying O Cedar again..... ever.

OCedar on leather lounge – My quality leather lounge has started to peel. The only thing that I can think of that I have used on the lounge is OCedar furniture polish. Has anyone else used this product on leather of any kind and what has been your outcome/findings? I've also used on timber furniture and found it leaves a residue Many thanks.

Bring back original O'Cedar Furniture Polish please – Very disappointed in the new O'Cedar Furniture Polish. The smell is awful and it is SO runny - just like water. I have been buying the original O'Cedar for years and use it to polish all my spinning wheels and other wooden furniture. The house used to.smell so lovely after using the original. Not happy.Jan Will be finding an alternative if the old product is not bought back to Supermarket shelves. Show details

Not the same any more – Please bring the traditional product back. It work perfectly well, smells natural, got the right formular. Why changed it? If you want to experiment, create a new model. Call old one "Classic" the new one "New" so something creative. Apology for my tone, but honestly, it's my trusted product, before you changed it.

This product is rubbish – Have been using your Floor Polish for over 10 years Purchased a bottle recently only to find it was not the same I had been using. This is watery not at all oily no nice smell my feet stuck to the floor and streaks were every where,I have beautiful Jarrah polished boards and all I ever used on them was the original O'Cedar oil. It has ruined… Read more

my beautiful boards and I don't know how to remove it. I will never use this product again and will not recommend it to anyone. I want some answers from this company immediately.

O'Cedar Furniture Polish – Tried this on cedar venetian blinds that have direct midday sun exposure, it is an excellent product, goes on very easily and buffs to a matt finish with a lint free cotton cloth. The blinds were very neglected and really soaked up the first coat, I found using a small, long bristle paint brush the most effective way to apply the first coat. … Read more

Prices seem to vary, best price I found was Bunnings, $6.40 for a 300ml bottle. That was sufficient to treat 4, 1800mm x 1350mm blinds.

I will probably check and reapply in 6 months time, although it is a mind numbing job so I may not......

Not suitable for polished Jarrah flooring – Leaves sticky, dull residue which shows all shoe and foot prints, and them difficult to remove, definitely not suitable for timber flooring. Am now looking for alternatives, any suggestions please.

Out door wooden bar – Works a treat looks like new again..I highly recommend this little bottle, used on outdoor furniture and indoor don't need to apply as much to the indoor furniture as it's not as dry and doesn't have the sun to help it dry/asorbe in.

Do not buy this product – It is a very expensive product and it is not worth the money. It leaves an oily residue after used and covers only minor scratches. The residue it leaves reduces the shine of the furniture. Disgusting product.

Really great product – This is a fantastic product, even if it is a little expensive. I use it on all the wooden furniture. If you don't follow the directions and remember to wipe it off / rub it in it does leave an oily residue - it is an oil after all! But it's such a good finish and smells great too. I bought a beat up old wooden chest and rubbed this into it. The… Read more

end result was amazing. It even felt smooth to the touch. It will still need to be done every few months or so, but well worth it. I just hope they don't change the product like so many other companies do.

Destroyed my Davis table – Stained the table which is over 20 years old. No product has ever down this. Impossible to shine, Leaves a greasy scum. Disgusting product. Will see if I can feed back directly to ocedar but there appears to be no way.

Over priced Paraffin Oil – If you look at the MSDS for this product it is 98% Paraffin Oil. http://www.ocedar.com.au/pdf/MSDS_O'Cedar_Furniture_Polish_300ml.pdf You can get 1 litre of Diggers Paraffin Oil from Bunnings for $12.15. Nearly three times cheaper.

GREAT STUFF – I have used O Cedar polish since 1949 and it is easy to use, preserves the furniture and has a delightful "O Dar" that leaves the whole house smelling as fresh as the first day of spring. I love using O Cedar!

Masks scratches and cleans floor – Awesome products for hiding scratches forever. Tried on floor and worked awesome. Mop is required on floor after using this to give even look.

Great stuff – This product is excellent on lighter timbers it would be fantastic if you could make a similar product to cover imperfections on darker timbers as there appears to be nothing on the market

It's a very expensive furniture polish – Some of the reviews on here have obviously been written by people who have shares in the company! This won't cover damage to your furniture! I had a cple of items with minor surface marks and used this to hide them after seeing these reviews. All this stuff is, is a polish that does nothing but polish a piece of wood. If your item is slightly… Read more

marked before you use this product, it'll be slightly marked after you use it. Anyone who says it covers or disguises even minor damage is probably sniffing the stuff.

It's a furniture polish - that's all

Miracle in a bottle – I bought some teak verneer furniture from the Salvos for my daughters flat, it was in good shape but the wood was water marked, dull and stained. I went to Bunnings and bought some new srain, top coat and sandpaper feeling I would have to strip it right back. Before I started, the thought occured to me to perhaps first try some furniture polish,… Read more

it looked like mission impossible but I will give it a try. I bought a can of Marveer and a bottle of O'Cedar furniture polish and treated one shelf with the Marveer and the other with the O'Cedar. The Marveer was very good, but the O'Cedar was brilliant, beyond all expectations! To say the wood came up like new is no exaggeration. Anyone need a can of teak stain and varnish now surplus to my requirements? Incredible result

Great! – I usually use another product. I have a lot of colonial furniture. When I shopped, I couldn't get the brand I usually use so bought O'Cedar. The scratches (cat claws) have disappeared. It has left a lovely glow to the furniture but there is no oily residue. I am initially very I impressed but will look at the furniture over a period of time to see how it holds up. At this stage, I am thinking this is the product I will use in the future.

Best product on the market! – O Cedar is the only product to use if you want an old fashioned shine to your timber furniture. My Mum has been using it for years and it still doesn't disappoint today. Seems to nourish and protect everything from outdoor furniture to my precious antique pieces inside. However, do not use this product on floors, as things can get slippery! … Read more

Love the product, just wish it was available in the 700ml spray pack as it once was. Effective, does what it says! Small packaging size only available now at my supermarket.

Great to bring out the features in timber – Purchased the furniture polish at Woolworths for about $7.00. we have a number of different timber features in our home and it brought out the great colour & grain in our river red gum and merbau. also used it on our dining table and coffee tables; it didnt get rid of all the marks but certainly gave it a new lease on life like a moisturiser. its… Read more

a great product for all different timbers. I will be using this product for a very long time its so great. bunnings sell it, but it was sold out when i tried to buy it there.

Finally found it again! – Our local Coles has been removing all of the quality products and replacing them with their name brand products and O Cedar is one of the things to go. It is one of the products you didn't realise how much you needed until it is gone. After buying, trying and throwing out all of Coles new substitutes I am on holidays in Melbourne and what I will… Read more

be packing my bags with is O Cedar. Highly nourishing for woods that suffer terribly in the dry tropics. Nothing else comes close. Can't buy it locally

Marveer replacement – This is good stuff. A great marveer replacement. Does not smell as much as marveer. Easy to apply and a little goes along way. At $6.99 for 300ml it will last for months if not years. I had been looking for another bottle of marveer for months but couldn't find any, then last week saw this on the shelf in woollies. It's made in Australia in Melbourne , not China! Praise the lord. Every thing. How it works and where it's made.  Show 3 replies
