The other day I worked on this large 22 foot conference table.
It was cherry and a very expensive table.
I found out that the company that owned the table had their annual take your kid to work day.
Unfortunately, while one of the lawyers was with a client, the child was left alone sitting at the table drawing pictures. As he looked at the beautiful finish on the table, he thought it was a good idea to add his name to the top. He was able to scratch in most of his name until his parent caught him in the act!
She was told not to worry about it by her boss, but she did not want this to be a reason down the road for losing her job!
She decided to look up a furniture guy, and was referred to me by another customer.
I have repaired graffiti damage before in elevators, and other pieces of furniture. I filled the damage, and camouflaged it so that it was not as noticeable. She made the remark that it looked brand new again! She breathed a sigh of relief, and got some points with her boss for taking care of the damage.
Sorry about the glare in the pictures. Whatever I tried I could not get a good picture with my Android phone.
