I want to refinish a kitchen table.

Give it a couple of coats of paste wax.

paste was can give you a little shine, but also shows finger prints like crazy wherever you touch it! There’s clear oils like Watco natural oil you can use to, but the oil will take several days to dry! You can add more coats of oil to make a deeper shine too, but it’s a time consuming process! In the long run for a quick and painless finish, even though it’s a little smelly and can be messy if you’re not careful! Using a lacquer finish in a spray can or varnish. You can also use epoxy to get a quick thick shinny finish too! But you probably want to do it in a garage or maybe outside on a nice warm day! Sorry, that’s my end of ideas!

I agree with Rose, purchase Butches bowling ally wax. Follow the instruction. I worked along side with the National Park Service Conservatives, they used the wax on all different surfaces. Butcher also make a couple colored waxes which can hide small scratches. Apply a thin coat and buff before adding another coat, waite until dry a couple hours, buff it out with a 100% cotton cloth. diaper works.
