Behold

Behold is a brand of Furniture Polish produced by the Sara Lee Corporation. Behold furniture polish and Endust dusting aid were previously produced by Drackett. When Drackett was sold to S. C. Johnson & Son in 1992, these two products were sold off to avoid anti-trust concerns. S.C.Johnson produces Pledge, a similar product to Behold, as well as other waxes.
