So our living room coffee table is only a couple years old. We still love the look and design, but something started to happen to it about a year ago. It started getting these really ugly spots where the finish was coming off on the top. Some of us believe this is from not using coasters. Others believe it's from just normal wear and tear (and having two kids!) The table still looked great from a distance but once you got up close you could see all of these terrible spots:
Just recently while I was at Lowe's, I came across the Homex wood stain markers. I found it next to the wood putty! I knew these existed but I just wasn't sure it would solve our problem. I was also hesitant that I would be able to find a color to match our table.
