Next time you see her, say, "hey I took another look at the crib and I realized there are more teethmarks than I thought. Do you still want it?"

The miniature was literally only in it when I needed to take a shower or something and most of the time I brought his little rocking swing into the bathroom with me. The mattress is still in plastic But I guess he was in it long enough to practice being a beaver. If I can fix it, Id like to. 1
scoobdog Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 If you have deep gouges... You want to go with a stainable wood filler: \ Fill the spot and find a couple of stains, one that is lighter and one that is darker, with the same basic tone (reddish, brownish, tanish). Apply the lighter first and then fade in the darker stain to get it closer to the right color match.

Also, be sure to put a urethane coat on top to seal it. 1

Also, be sure to put a urethane coat on top to seal it. I didn't see any one mention this yet. Sometimes on real wood, not fake wood, you can take a wet washcloth and put it over the dent, use a clothes iron and run it over it. The steam in some cases can bring the dents right back out. The urethane might still need to be reapplied.
scoobdog Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 It's certainly worth a shot. I believe it works best on bare wood, but you might still get some benefit as long as the the wood isn't sealed. You'll still need to put some fill in.

Thanks for the all advice though
