M&S Oak Dining Table faded - whats my rights
Comments
-
Just had our chairs delivered by a different company - they reckon the cork pad has souked up some of the laquer/varnish from the table - let that be a lesson to us all, no porous cork pads!
Now, should i regularly polish the spot to build some back up?
Are you sure you have the answer? Lacquer or varnish are liquid when applied and harden quickly - a cork mat could not absorb what is already a hardened surface. Do you know how they have finished the table? is it a hard surface or just a wood treatment like oil or wax?John0 -
Aliasjo has the answer. Do you prefer the expert advice of another company's delivery men? Don't do anything to the spot any different from the rest of the table.Just had our chairs delivered by a different company - they reckon the cork pad has souked up some of the laquer/varnish from the table - let that be a lesson to us all, no porous cork pads!
