Assessing the Large Gouge in Wood Scratch Repair

Video Transcript

All right. That's cooled off a little bit. Now we're going to fill this one up. It's a little bit trickier. Now we've got to pick some colors that are going to kind of blend in here. We've got some light brown, we've got some dark brown over here on the edges, and we've got some black streaks in it where the grain is. We've go a lot going on in the finish anyway. So we're going to try and duplicate that with these sticks. As you can see, I've got a rainbow of colors and you just try and mix and match until you get the right color that you're looking for. And if you can't find the right color, you simply mix the two. So what we're going to do here is we're going to melt a little bit of this lighter brown with some of the darker red brown, and then we'll create a totally different color. And as we pour this in, we're going to let the knife go back and forth and just kind of blend them together. At the same time I'm putting pressure down in the hole and making it melt all the way down to the crevice. Again, I want more than I need so I want it to stick up on the surface. Once I get that all filled in nice and neat, nice and mixed up, the colors even, everything's good. You can see that you've got another lumpy surface. But it's all colors built back in already. So we're going to let that dry and cool and then we'll continue.
