Looking for a source for oil rubbed finish restorer

2005

We have oil rubbed finish new hardware on our interior doors and two exterior doors. It isn't more than 6 months old and the dark finish has rubbed off the handles all ready. Can a finish be purchased that can be wiped on the hardware to restore it to the dark finish once again?

Hi,
I have brand new oil rubbed broze fixtures in my bathroom. By mistake someone cleaned them with a regular Ajax [adv: item on eBay & Amazon] type product and removed all of the finish. Is there any way to replace or put back the finish without having to completely replace the fixtures?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
