Labor Day weekend, I bought an old table. The finish on the top was in rough shape, but until I'm really sure I want to keep it, I don't want to go to the expense of having it refinished.

Nevertheless, it needed a good cleaning. I went to Home Depot and the clerk told me to use a product called Rejuvenate.

First, I wiped the table down with mineral spirits on a rag. Then I applied Rejuvenate as directed on the bottle. Two quadrants of the table "fish-eyed." I applied another coat hoping it would dissolve the first coat and blend all together. Didn't make a difference.

I have tried to use more mineral spirits to remove the Rejuvenate. It didn't work. Things just keep going from bad to worse.

Any advice on what I should do? I just want the table to look decent while I decide what I'm going to do.
