Minwax describes several products for maintaining wood furniture. Wood Finish Stain Markers apply matching color to table scratches, while Wood Putty and a Blend-fil Pencil are intended for nicks and similar small defects. Choose the treatment around the actual damage rather than treating every mark identically.

Use Wood-Furniture Touch-Up Products for the Right Defect

Test color and finish compatibility before working on a visible area, then follow the product directions for application and excess removal. Cabinet Cleaner and Hardwood Floor Cleaner serve a different purpose: removing ordinary dirt before any appropriate repair or maintenance treatment.

Markers add color to scratches, while putty and filling pencils address nicks.
