  • Getting more worried about the kids spilling something that would properly stain the raw wood spot I just went ahead with what I had in the house.

    • Light sand to blend into the surrounding area and transition the ridged section.
    • Danish oil - spot application, followed by wider coverage, lots of wiping off to control the application (normally I'd do a couple of medium coats and leave)
    • lots of bees wax and buff

    It's clear the pink goop did stain the wood more than I thought. But over all it's less noticeable. Especially in the context of overall condition of the table top.

    Ultimately this is why we bought all this cheap MCM furniture (at the time this was £50 collected from Kent) - looks nice, repairable, but not so expensive that you cry when your kids fuck it up.

    If it survives maybe one day we'll get someone to professionally refinish it.
