Despite all precautions, wooden furniture is subject to scratches and slight dents, which can quickly make a beautiful piece of furniture look old and used. But there is hope, because small dents in the wood can literally be ironed out again.

 

Place a damp kitchen towel folded twice on the dented area of the wooden surface. Switch on the iron at the highest setting. When the iron is hot enough, run it over the kitchen towel for a few seconds. Do not use steam!
Then rub the dent with furniture polish.

If the dent is still visible, repeat the procedure.
