HELP! Brown heat mark on unfinished wood island top
-
KMS Woodworks on Aug 10, 2013The wood has been "burned" and will need to be sanded out...You are lucky in that the wood in unfinished. If you have access to a Random Orbit sander I would start with some 120 grit and work out the burn...being careful not to work to intensely in one sopt and feather the edges out a bit. When I work in my shop I will sometimes get "burn" marks on hard maple from my table saw blade ( this can be due to being dull / dirty or from "binding" due to tension in some of the wood grain) I simply sand these dark areas away. Once you have sanded the spot out ( or the whole top to even up any patina or color diffs...treat the whole thing with some butcher block oil.Helpful Reply
