HONEST ANSWER asked:


We have a gorgeous black coffee table that we love, however with time the finish on the top (in some areas) has begin to wear off. I didn’t want to make this a whole repainting project and was wondering what options I have to just cover the wear on it. It’s exposing a bit of the wood underneath. It looks like small scrathes, although there’s no deepth to the damage.
