    Pretty easily, Var. Clean in the scratches if it’s been a few days. I might use a Qtip and a drop of rubbing alcohol. Fill in the scratches and gouges with wood filler. Use a mahogany wood repair pen, or tiny strokes with mahogany paint or a marker. Ll, and let that dry. If you have some superfine sandpaper, cut a strip the size of a finger, and sand the repaired lines vary gently. Sanded or not, use a clean cloth and buff all the lines until they are smooth. If any line needs more color, use the mahogany wood repair pen, a marker, or paint, and let that dry. Buff again where needed. Protect the repair with what was used originally. If bayou don’t know what to use, you can use a few drops of varnish, polyurethane, finishing wax, or even petroleum jelly. Let it blend in with the rest of the tabletop, which may need a coat of protection. I hope this helps. ☺️
