Before applying Life O' Wood to an entire Formica surface, it's always a good idea to test a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure compatibility and desired results.

A little goes a long way with Life O' Wood Multi-surface Polish. Overusing the product can result in a sticky residue, so use sparingly and buff well.

When applying and buffing the polish, use gentle pressure to avoid scratching or damaging the Formica surface.
