I have bought a brand new coffee table. I installed it and now after a
month, the finish peels off at some points. To be specific, a piece of
wood is installed on top of the table top (all around the rim to give
the top more depth!). when I moved my finger at the place where the
wood meets the table top, the finish/stain is easily peeled off. I know
that the finish did not touch the wood, so finish just dried up and
sits on nowhere. that's why it comes off all right. Now I have got bare
white spots all aroud my table rim. Can you tell me how to fix this? I
do not have any clue what type of stain it is used. One thing I know
for sure. The finish is not a PolyUrethane.


thanks a lot for your help.

Seeing as how the table is only a month old the easiest way to fix the
problem should be to call the store where you bought the table and complain.

You shouldn't have to do anything but make a phone call. Have the store
give your money back when they pick it up.

yeah, I'll chime in and agree with you and Jack that it's time to call
the store and ask for an exchange or repair if that would be satisfactory.
