Hi. I've got a wooden table that's about 20 years old and is in

Can anybody recommend a DIY product that'd do a reasonable repair?

Get some woodfiller, it comes in different colours and pine is available
everywhere.
It blends in quite nicely once set and sanded down....you may have to sand
the entire table down and give it all a coat of clear varnish, my guess is
that it would come up like new.


I'd use a Liberon Wax stick. Easy to just rub it across the damaged area
and, unlike some fillers, you know in advance how good a colour match
it'll be
