Ultimate touch-up kit

摘要

I like factory-finished hardwood flooring because it installs quickly and with little mess. Dings and nail holes, though, are difficult to disguise, especially in even-toned woods where the grain doesn't offer any natural camouflage. On a recent installation of Santos mahogany flooring, I tried at least a half-dozen different touch-up pencils, paste fillers, and wax sticks, but the nail holes along the last row of planks still stuck out like a sore thumb. In a last-ditch effort, I forked over $30 for FastCap's SoftWax kit, hoping it would ease the customer's growing nervousness and get me out of this jam. Thankfully, I got a near-perfect color match within minutes.
