Answer
Hi Alfie
Nice to hear from you.
This is the question I get asked most often Alfie.
There are several ways to go about the fix, but try the easiest first.
I am enclosing a link to a site that takes you through the process and explains exactly what to do. Probably better than I can LOL.
I have however been the most sucessful using the cigarette ash and oil remedy.
Its explained in the article too.

Good Luck

Hi..I can answer most questions about the repairing,stripping and refinishing of all your old furniture and wood items(the things we call antiques)I can give advice about what to buy/avoid at auctions/flea markets. I do not give appraisals on antiques.

Experience

I have been refinishing antiques for the past 30yrs. While I have taken several courses over the years,I have found that "hands on" learning is the best teacher. Perhaps I can help you avoid some of the mistakes I made while learning.
