The restore-a-finish will brighten the finish back up, the one thing about lacquer a solvent will soften it up and then the restore-a-finish will blend in and once it dries the look is much better. If it was gatored/wrinkled badly with much of the finish missing chunks then you would need to strip it. As long as the finish is intact Howard's products will go a long way.
