AeeoaoooosoDoooo *Decoxatvi4, 7toteC4&6 _ by Alicia [Joyce - i Real Woods Unharmed by Cigarettes Now you can enjoy beautiful real wood furniture without worry ing about careless abuse, even at parties. A forgotten cigarette can burn to ash and not harm today’s newest f urn iture featuring “beautyguard” genuine hardwood tops developed in Fine Hardwoods Association research. Spilled alcohol, nail polish and remover, fruit juices, perfumes, cosmetics and other common abuses also won’t mark or stain these new wood furniture surfaces. Protected by a special new "beautyguard” process, these abuse-resistant real wood furni ture tops retain all the warmth, depth, richness and individuality of the genuine hardwoods used. There’s no longer any need to settle for commercial-looking sub stitutes. These new hardwood tops give you fine woods in fine finishes for surfaces subjected to hard use, eliminating the glassy, wavy look of most resistant-surfaced mate rials. The “beautyguard” process supplements the extremely dur able, modern finishes already available on wood furniture. With these new wood tops, you can decorate with fine hardwood furniture you’re proud to have in your rooms, and still have a care free, modern home that won’t be hurt by careless guests.
