Dining Room Table With Scratches

RE: Dining Room Table With Scratches Post By Claudia-MD (Guest Post) (01/17/2007) Old English makes a scratch cover in dark and light. You can get it in groceries, Walmart, KMart, Target, etc. It's like a polish and stain combined. I use it on my cherry dining table, and other antiques to cover/minimize the look of scratches and nicks.

When the new table arrives,if you have to assemble it-- make sure the table top is placed on a sheet at the least. If you cannot return the table- you can talk to a wood worker-- for the best thing to do. Request: Scratches on a Rattan Dining Room Set Post by moderator (763) | (01/12/2007) Profile | Blog! | Contact Someone just gave me a really nice Rattan Dining Room Set, but it has a lot of scratches, some very deep. Is there anything I can fill them in with? Someone suggested shoe polish but it seems to me like that might smear around when I use furniture polish on it. I am thinking of getting oen of those paint pens, but the deep scratches will still be there although not as visable. Any ideas? Thanks :) Kim from NJ Answers: RE: Scratches on a Rattan Dining Room Set Try sanding down the whole table filling the scratches with wood filler, staining, then waxing. (03/30/2006) RE: Scratches on a Rattan Dining Room Set Just to make the scratches less noticeable - you can stain the scratch - using pens/shoe polish etc. Make sure you blend in the color, tho - Is it dark or light rattan? The dark stuff would be easier to cover scratches in. And then you could wax the rattan - although I think you have to get some water on it to keep it from cracking.... (03/31/2006) By pamphyila
