I purchased it at Home Cheapo, though they did not carry the full line of colors. I see products come and go at the Cheapo, so it may no longer be available there if it didn't fly off the shelves.antique1973 wrote:I was wondering, what chain stores carry the Howards products?

Re: Howard’s restore a finish
I found it at Home Depot today. I went over all 3 of my machines and they look
pretty sweet now. The trashed out VV XVI looks way more presentable now, although there
are still some bad marks on the top of the lid that would not resolve. Also, the outside wood
is practically black compared to the reddish bright mahogany on the inside of the lid and
other interior areas. I will post some pics tomorrow, as I am away from my office at the moment.

Re: Howard’s restore a finish
Ok, here are the pics of my VV XVI, Silvertone, and Starr after Howards treatment. Any ideas on improving the
VV XVI? The lid still looks rough and the color is too dark it seems. Not much grain showing either.
