How to repair Wood Furniture At Home by Pottery Barn

How to repair Wood Furniture At Home by Pottery Barn

Furniture Repairs Made Easy This is our entryway bench and antique ride and today what I want to do I want to show how to how to repair some of these damages. We need  a rough patch, a soft patch and the plastic card, the hard one and a wax stick and a touch up pen and and pretty much all these items available locally at your grocery store or
hardware store. Before we start and go ahead and work on that we look at the surface the first thing is to check on
the color tone, of the pen to see it's matching to the surface that we will repair, and it's a very very good match, here we have a lot of holes and it looks quite damaged and what you do is you take your wax stick and you rub in some wax and see how easy it is to fill it? Now we can see I've filled all these
holes of the damage and to test it now the plastic card drive or whatever you have, I just put the sharp edge here, that on the surface and we remove
the excess wax. Take your pad and you rub in the grain direction, and you clean up all the excess wax on the surface, it looks really amazing, there are just a few spots
where substrates of the wood is looking through, and what we do, we take our white touch up pen, dab a little bit, on the surface and just take your time look at how nice that looks, you let it dry for about two or three hours and then you can use it.

We want to repair our Montego pedestal table in our Mahogany finish. We want  to repair that really deep damage what we have here, we have the
mahogany color tone here burnishing here the dark area here, so the way we start out is
first Color tone all the very deep scratch with the Mahogany tone, you do that very very light, and rub away the excess material so you've blend it in right away. What we do first is we rub very hard with a lot of pressure, and just fill it, and then you remove the excess material, look at how clean that looks here. And then on the edge you just take your pad, and recreate the way you use the table edge,
and now you can see the difference from the Mahogany, expecially on the edge.

We will start off first with a black edge, and we feather in the color tone, and now we're using our  mahogany color tone marker, we do very very small dabs, and
it blends in  to the surrounding surface. Okay now we are done, with great results repairing
the furniture, It looks amazing the final result. Pottery Barn.
