That walnut trick really worked for me. I'm actually kind of trippin out. It doesn't even feel like a life hack...more like a glitch haha

I'm a professional carpenter and the oil and vinegar trick blew my mind. THAT is gonna save me some money.

The tip at 2:18 about vegetable oil and vinegar worked absolutely perfectly on real cherry wood - deep scratches from dog nails - 100% gone - cannot see them no matter how close you look. I was planning on having the whole thing redone and just fixed it in 2 minutes with 25 cents of veg oil and vinegar. Amazing. Thank you so much for this. This is the best thing I've found on the internet in a long time.

thank you, saved my ass from getting whupped by my mum for scratching her table.

THIS WORKS! I bought a new piece from somone who received it scratched from wayfair. I used the walnut and in SECONDS the scratches were GONE! It did lift the stain a bit, so I grabbed a paper towel and dabbed into my JAVA GEL STAIN by General finishes, and I swiped across and then wiped off immediately and OMG ITS AS IF NONE OF THESE SCRATCHES WERE EVER THERE! YOU CANNOT SEE THEM! This video is amazing! Thank you so much for making it! I wish I could share pics!!

Nuts...who would have thought. Based on this video's recommendation, I just tried covering or fixing multiple scratches on clear alder cabinetry using pecans. It worked beautifully!

Saved my life! Bought my Dad a painting off of ebay for Christmas and it had some scratches on the frame. Used the pecan trick and it worked beautifully! I actually used it all over the frame to re-hydrate the wood :)

WOW!!!!! I tried the oil and vinegar procedure on my hardwood floor and it really worked!!!! 😃Thanks.

Vinegar + Oil did wonders on my door. No more cat scratches

I'm impressed the walnut trick worked. Albeit, it only minimized scratches on dark glossy wood but seemed to eliminate the scratch on my lighter table.

Wow. Great video! I'm retired (sort of lol) and do a lot of handyman type work. In a very "round about" way I got asked by a friend to fix a piece of furniture he bought at scratch/dent sale. Large tv cabinet (when tv's weren't flat) and misc damage pretty much all over. Your video gives me a lot of good choices on the direction to take. Thank you!

I used the Walnut trick. Cant believe how well it works. I would highly recommend doing this.

I can't believe how well the walnut worked on my cherry kitchen cabinet. Amazing!

Thanks for the tips. Tried walnut method and it hid the scratches well. The walnut oil may get rubbed off when cleaning the table but I am happy to have a simpe touch up solution at hand. Thanks again!

Incredible - I actually tried the walnut hack and it worked! Thank you so much!

Thanks for the tips! I’ve used similar methods for restoring guitars. My favorite results usually come from mixing Shellac with stain. Cheers

The nut one on the wood furniture really worked well. Thank you so much!

Just did the salad cure. Worked great to cover up the scratches. Thank you very much. 👍👍🇨🇦

Life saver!!! A wallnut just fixed my brand new furniture, thanks so much!!!

im so glad i dont have to break out my sander. Thank you so much. I just bought a cherrywood dresser on offer up. 🙏🏾

I have done a few pieces and I have a new found love for repairing wood furniture

That soft nut trick was amazing! Thank you! Do you know if the nut oil will spoil on the wood over time?

That vinegar oil trick is brilliant. You basically created a lemon oil furniture conditioner alternative!

The walnut trick worked. All I had to do was to buff out the marks grease-looking marks from the walnuts and it is perfectly invisible! Thanks!

The walnut hack is great. The top of my display cabinet had lots of scratches and I applied the walnut hack and now its looks very good. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much. The oil/vinegar worked a treat on an antique pine cabinet. Even helped on black ash finish too. Thanks again. 👌👌👌

That tip on using walnuts was just nuts.

Thanks for the Cooking oil & Vinegar Tips! It ready works & Thanks for Sharing!

The walnut trick worked amazing! Thank you for sharing:)

I can't thank you enough, I literally only have 2 possessions with real meaning to me and that's my car and my Eames chair. My sister put a big scratch in my chair and I was completely beside myself but I used the second method with a walnut and you can't even see the scratch anymore. You're an angel!

I tried the vinegar/oil combo and it's great! The furniture I have is an old banged up antique radio with chunks of it gone, so it just slightly darkens the exposed areas, but it looks so much better than it did. I decided to use apple cider vinegar instead since it smells nice :)

The walnut trick works like magic! I tried it and was pleasantly surprised at how well and quickly it worked. 😀

It was working. Thanks

You have really a great Idea and you are a Knowledgeable Person! Thank you

Thanks for the tips 👍

Thank you so much🤗love you saved the door in my bedroom

Thank you. This was really helpful

thank you this is so helpful!!

Thank you so much this helped a lot!

Great guide. Thanks. In England right now people are paying good money for distressed edges like the first example!

Thank you for the hack

This works!!! I just successfully covered countless light feathery dog scratches on a wooden door. Thanks so much for the tip to combine 3 parts vegetable oil and 1 part white vinegar.

Thank you so much! The nut truck really worked!

Thank you for this video. I appreciate it. I have a dining table leaf that was scratched up during a move. It probably is finished using lacquer. Could you please suggest what I should do to get rid of those surface scratches? Thanks in advance for your time.

The walnut trick is the best it really worked

Thank you so much!

Thanks alot for this video 💕💕💕

Wow, great tips! Do these techniques work on slightly darker wood color?

WOW! Walnuts!!! Seriously?! Ive never heard that ANYWHERE before. What a great tip. Thank you!

This is great, thank you!

Thank you so much! You saved my life, because my cat secretly scratches my mom's childhood bed frame, and she would kill me if she sees the scratches!😬🤫

GREAT tips! Thank you!

Really great tips!

THANK YOU!

Beautiful, thank you so much!!!!!

saved my skin with an accidental scratch on our table. Fantastic, thank you so much.

thank you...i used the oil and vinegar mix on my millennium computer wooden chess board worked very well.

This how-to video was brought to you by the Walnut Growers Association of America. LOL, just kidding. Awesome tip. I made one modification to the technique: since I figured it was the oil in the walnut that made this work I crushed a walnut in a garlic press and then rubbed the very oily result into the wood. Worked perfectly. I don't know if this is an improvement or not since it's the only way I tried it and it was magic.

Life saver! Thank you

Love those products!!!

Excellent! Thanks.

Sitting here rubbing a pecan into my Ercol and low and behold a miracle has happened. Do you have the lottery numbers too????????

Love this video

Thank you

I can't believe I just used an actual walnut to cover a scratch on my Louis XV walnut desk. Thanks so much for teaching me one of the coolest and cheapest tricks ever!

The Vinegar and Oil worked great for cat scratches in the window sill

Walnut trick worked for me.

Really good tips! My kids are so hard on.... well almost everything we own. ha!

Thanks

I found that on eBay. The 3-in-1 repair stick. I have a gray table with a lot of scratches on it, so I will try your ideas on it. I don’t have the money to buy a new desk. Thanks!

Super helpful! Saved the day. Thanks!!

OMG, my dog scratched several oak veneer doors in our house and this removed all the scratches! Thank-you for the tip

worked perfect

Had to call my mom over this walnut trick. Now I’m spending my Sunday rubbing walnuts into my furniture lol

Mind blown on the Walnut thing

I just discovered a long heart-stopping scratch across the grain of a mint antique wardrobe. I rubbed a walnut into the scratch lengthwise then across and rubbed out the excess with a tissue. Totally disappeared. From an angle the scratch is visible and this means some kind of filler is needed if possible. Thanks Pneumatic Addict, and any suggestions for a filler?

I use liquid shoe polish brilliant what you do if you have scratch marks use a wire wool or sand paper and rub it down till the scratches are smooth then use the shoe liquid polish then rub it over with a cloth..I also use olive oil and vinegar I mix it and I rub it over that also works good to remove ring marks ..

This was greattttt!!!!

Good info Elisha!

Does the oil and vinegar trick work on veneer tables as well or only real wooden tables?

The walnut works. I am truly addicted to life hack videos from this moment onwards

I appreciate this so much. I just ruined my dining table because I was cleaning something that my 1 year old had a blow out on so needless to say I was already in an overwhelmed state. And that just made me feel so bad about myself. But I will try to fix it with your suggestions. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Great ideas ma’am Thank u

The walnut idea is ingenious

which one is the best for laminate?

Amazing ♡

What do you suggest for use on laminate?

what do you recommend for mahogany?

Just like a pro!

What if the table surface color is black? Is it just a matter of the right color fill stick or marker?

carved into my desk when i was a stupid 14 year old, but this helped!

Thanks for these tips. I have a mango wood 10 seater table that I’m about to fix. Hoping these tips will help.

Hey. Question: my table has a white composite material under the chipped paint. Do I fix that the same way as the veneer?

Very smart you are

Great video! Thanks!

Lamp thanks the walnut thing actually worked

Hi! I just bought a white cube storage unit from Target. After it was assembled I went to remove the A/B stickers from the boards and it took off the white surface paint! What can I do about that? Just some white paint? Help!!!

Fantastic 👌👌

does walnut technique work??

Great video, thanks for sharing! What do you recommend as a final finish after fixing the scratches and dings? Most videos suggest finishing with the same finish as originally applied. What do you do if you don't know the original finish? It could be lacquer, varnish, shellac, etc. I don't want to mess up the repairs by applying the wrong finish coat.
