Do Your Own Minor Furniture Repairs
If your rowdy kids have accidentally nicked the side of a cabinet heirloom with a baseball bat, you can repair the superficial damage on your own without opting to buy furniture online. If the finishing has been chipped off, apply colored furniture polish on the area with a lint-free cloth until it matches the wood’s natural color. You can fill in deep scratches with wood putty and apply a matching colored polish after it dries. You can restore the sheen on the affected area by reapplying the varnish or finish after the putty has thoroughly dried up. Test the lacquer on wood samples first before you use it on the cabinet just to be sure.
