Default How to repair a mahogany table top

Our dining table has suffered the ravages of family life for 20 years or
so and the top has quite a few dings and scratches. It's not
particularly valuable but the finish is very attractive so I'd prefer to
try to repair the scratches and refinish it - any suggestions about
where to get the necessary info?


Depends on whether it's solid or veneered. If sold it can be sanded
but it's more likely to be veneered. there are various epoxy
compounds, the trick being to match the colours. If you want a good
job, best left to an expert.
