Done it, well done should have spilt some RED wine onto filler no one would have noticed the difference then.

For varnish consider Ronseal Diamond Hard Floor Varnish. It's incredibly easy to use, dries like glass, and lasts forever.

Tony. Going to b and q today for this. Any tips on putting it on please?

It's just too easy. It's water-based and goes on easily. Once hard blemishes can be smoothed with wire wool - gently. Give it two coats with a light rub in between. It's like glass when finished.

REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY upset.

There is a leak above the table from a skylight I thought I had fixed it but I musn't have done a good job. It has leaked onto my table A LOT.. and the repair has gone all wierd and soaked in and is awful. I want to cry. I was so chuffed with myself. Havn't the heart to start again. Will varnish and then poss cover before paying a professional.

I'm only doing all small jobs needed as I want moho to be perfect if I have to sell next year as struggling. Want the new owner to love it. Can't see any way to even afford flat down South if not. Sorry. I'm going on. Am soooo sad.. Disappointed.. And little un just phoned, crying, she misses me. can we have a group hug please... My emoji for one doesn't work.

I’m sorry to hear that Joy, after you had made such a lovely job of the repair. Give it a few days to get over it and then try one of the suggestions which have been made for covering it up. I’m sure everything will be fine in a week or two ?

Hi Joy

Yes you are understandably upset at your great work being spoiled but you can cover the table with a cloth and it's only cosmetic so don't fret about it but please sort/get sorted the leak from above as that could cause you a lot more grief in the long term.

If you are anywhere near Guisborough/Whitby give me a shout and I will seal it for you.

Tony re_did my table paint and went to B and Q for this today... . £45 for the smallest tin.. Guess iit because it for floors, they assume it for large areas. Would the DIAMOND HARD WOOD GLOSS be hard enough do you think..?

most hard acrylic varnishes will seal the job fine Joy

I recommended the Floor Varnish as it's one I used for skirtings and windowsills but that was around 15 years ago and I don't recall it being quite that expensive. Having said that it doesn't go off & goes a very long way - I still have some of the original half litre left! I think that at the time I bought it it was one of the very few alternatives to polyurethane varnish. It was recommended by a builder friend & there's no doubt it's hard - mine is still undamaged.
