🔧 4. Step-by-Step Repair Tips
Here’s a practical way to restore scratched furniture:
- Clean the surface — remove dust and debris with a microfiber cloth.
- Choose your method — natural home remedy for light scratches or a repair product for deeper ones.
- Apply your treatment — rub oil/vinegar mix, walnut, marker, or filler into the scratch.
- Buff & finish — use a soft cloth to buff the area once treated.
- For deep damage — use wood putty, allow it to dry, then lightly sand and seal with stain or protective finish if needed.
🧼 5. How to Prevent Future Scratches
Once your furniture looks good again, it’s helpful to protect it:
- Place coasters and placemats under dishes and decorative items.
- Use felt pads under furniture legs to limit dragging scratches.
- Avoid harsh cleaning tools and use soft cloths for dusting.
