Diversey TASKI R4 Shine Up Wooden Furniture Polish & Maintainer 5L | Professional Housekeeping
- Brand: TASKI (by Diversey)
- Product: R4 Shine Up Furniture Polish and Maintainer
- Formulation Type: Ready-to-Use (RTU) — apply undiluted, do not add water
- Finish: Restores a deep, lustrous sheen while maintaining the surface's protective film
- Also Suitable For: Polished metal fittings such as brass handles and nameplates
- Application: Shake well; spray onto a clean, soft cloth (not directly onto the surface); wipe and buff to a high gloss
- Not For: Floors, stairs, glass, or matt surfaces — creates a slip hazard and is unsuitable for these finishes
TASKI R4 Shine Up is the furniture polish and maintainer in the TASKI range, for wooden and finished surfaces. The word that matters is maintainer: a finished wooden surface loses its protective film gradually to handling, cleaning, and sunlight, and once that film is gone the timber underneath starts absorbing moisture and marking permanently. Regular polishing maintains that barrier — the shine is the visible result, but the protection is the point.
R4 Shine Up is supplied ready-to-use and should never be diluted with water; doing so breaks down the product's emulsion and leaves it unable to coat wood correctly. It is formulated for sealed wooden furniture and finished surfaces, and can also be used to maintain polished metal fittings such as brass handles, nameplates, and other metal fixtures — useful for a single product to cover both during a guestroom or office round.
In a hotel or office, the distinction between shine and protection is financial rather than aesthetic. Reception desks, meeting tables, wardrobe doors, and headboards are expensive to refinish and cheap to maintain, and the difference between the two is a routine someone actually follows. Technique matters more than quantity: spray lightly onto a cloth and buff promptly while the product is still moist — letting it sit and buffing later gives a duller, patchier result.

The TASKI R-Number System
- R1 — Bathroom cleaner cum sanitiser (concentrate)
- R2 — Hard surface cleaner cum sanitiser (concentrate)
- R3 — Glass and mirror cleaner (concentrate)
- R4 — Shine Up furniture polish and maintainer
- R5 — Air freshener and room deodoriser
- R6 — Toilet bowl and urinal cleaner (acidic)
The R-numbering is the de facto standard across Indian hospitality and facility management. Housekeeping staff trained anywhere in the country already know what R1 and R6 are, which cuts training time and reduces the chance of the wrong product reaching the wrong surface. R1 and R6 are both washroom products but are not interchangeable — R1 is for surfaces, fittings, and tiles, while R6 is an acidic cleaner reserved for the pan and urinal. Keep them in separate, clearly labelled dispensers.
Safety and Handling — Please Read
- This product is ready-to-use. Do not add water — doing so breaks down the emulsion and leaves it unable to coat wood correctly
- Shake the bottle well before use. Spray onto a clean cloth rather than directly onto the surface, then wipe and buff
- Never use furniture polish on a floor, stair, or any glass or matt surface. It makes the surface dangerously slippery, and in a public building that is a serious liability
- Buff promptly after application. Leaving it to sit and buffing later gives a duller, patchier finish
- Test on a hidden area first on antique, waxed, or specialist finishes, which react differently to modern polishes
- Never mix TASKI products with each other or with any other cleaning chemical. The most dangerous combination is an acidic toilet cleaner such as R6 with bleach or any alkaline product — it releases chlorine gas. Use one product, rinse, then use the next
- Wear gloves and eye protection when decanting or spraying in bulk, as splashes are most likely during decanting from a 5 litre container
- Keep it in its original labelled container. Never decant into a drinks bottle — an unlabelled chemical in a familiar bottle is a common cause of accidental poisoning
- Ventilate while cleaning and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, food items, and other chemicals

1) Does polish actually protect furniture, or just make it shine?
Both, and the protection is the more valuable part. A finished surface loses its protective film to handling, cleaning, and sunlight. Once it is gone, the timber underneath absorbs moisture and marks permanently. Regular polishing maintains that barrier.
2) Do I need to dilute TASKI R4 Shine Up before use?
No. It is a ready-to-use product and should never be mixed with water. Adding water breaks down the emulsion, leaving a watery mix that will not coat wood correctly and renders the product useless.
3) Can I use it on wooden floors or glass?
No. Furniture polish on a floor or stair makes it dangerously slippery, which in a hotel, office, or any public building is a serious liability. It also should not be used on glass or matt surfaces. Use a product formulated for those finishes instead.
4) Is it safe to use on polished brass fittings and nameplates?
Yes. TASKI R4 Shine Up can also be used to maintain polished metal surfaces such as brass handles, nameplates, and other metal fixtures, removing light smudges and leaving a clean shine.
5) Why does the finish look patchy and uneven after buffing?
This usually happens if too much product is applied to one spot, or if it is left to air-dry completely before buffing begins. For the best result, spray lightly onto a clean cloth, apply evenly across the grain, and buff promptly while the product is still moist.
