The right one is still unopened and bought later, but I hope it's the same. The liquid should look more or less clear. Take care, when using aggressive decal solutions. The underlying pledge can appear a bit cloudy afterwards. Luckily another coat of Pledge solves this. You can also matte the appearance of a Pledge coating by adding Tamiya's acrylic flat base. Add never more than 30% flat base, other ways the finish will be milky or cloudy. There is a link about mixing Pledge with flat base from the talented designer and builder fichtenfoo, which meets my experiences.

Yes, Future/Pledge Revive It is an acrylic sealer and smoother, on a floor it fills and removes the micro scratches that make a floor dull thus making it shiny again... It's designed to make any surface with a micro wear pattern glass smooth again... Flat paint is designed to have a micro rough surface so it reflects no light that's why it looks dull.... And a passing note for the future/pledge users out there... https://cmass.org/index.php?option=com_kunena&view=topic&catid=10&id=8651&Itemid=230 Future/Pledge Revive It has been discontinued by SC Johnson, it is no longer being made.... Get it while you can.... (and is still reasonably priced) Amazon UK is already out of stock!!!! Ebay is still reasonable though...

yvesvidal Posted January 11, 2023 Share #34 Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) That is a wood cleaner.... I am not sure if it is going to work. You need the Floor Gloss kind.
