REPAIR OF MINOR DAMAGES
 
The wood may appear rough and hoarse caused by dampness. To smooth the affected areas the sandpaper or gritty sponge can be used, always sanding in the direction of the grain. In case of minor dents or scratches you should trickle some water on the damaged area. To keep the affected area damp for longer, we recommend the use of a damp paper tissue. The solid wood will soak the water within a few hours, swell and rise. For larger dents you might want to repeat the exercise. Once the wood has dried, gently sand the area with sandpaper or the gritty side of the sponge (grain 150) supplied with the e15 maintenance kit. To speed the drying process, heat can be used, by holding a hot iron over the damp area (without direct contact with the wood). With the maintenance cloth, oil the sanded area evenly, if necessary also the entire table top. Before you wipe off excess oil, give the oil time to soak properly into the wood (about half a day).
