Picture a satin ebony oil slick.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I'm looking for suggestions on how to clean up the "Pledge effect,"&n= bsp; or at least mitigate the damage to the finish.  Once that's done I'm going to suggest some proper products, such as Cory's.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Ideas?        Have a great weekend, everybody</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Daniel F.
