Default dent repair

I want to fix some superficial dents in the rails on a pool table.
Most of these are shallow and did not break the surface (they look
like they came from impact with billiard balls). Any thoughts on
using burn in sticks vs drop filling with lacquer? I assume the
finish is some kind of lacquer.


If they are shallow - as you describe, I would try steaming them up. Do a
google search and you will find a great deal of information on steaming up
dents, with YouTube videos that will do much more than descriptions here can
do.
