Blemishes on unfinished furnitureMost of the unfinished furniture that I've seen has far fewer blemishes than new finished furniture. After spending so many years fixing blemishes, whenever I walk into a furniture store the repaired blemishes always stand out on new furniture.The oweys are repaired and everything is on the up and up, repaired blemishes on furniture are just a fact of life. Furniture manufacturers and designers and decorators have come up with some novel ideas throughout the years. Flyspeck trick to hide blemishes.Flyspecks, the little dark dots all over furniture will hide a lot of covered up ills.If you want to do some fly specking yourself, after you stain your furniture, before the clear finish, take a one inch paint brush and put a rubber band tightly around the bristles about an inch from the end. Dip the brush in the same stain you used to stain your piece of furniture, then blot the excess stain in the brush on a paper towel. Hold the brush about a foot from the surface and pull the bristles back with your finger and let them flick back. Little droplets of stain will spot the surface. If you don't like your spot pattern just wipe the spots off like you wipe the excess stain and try it again until you get what you want. Let the stain and spots dry for a minimum of 24 hours, since the spots will be a little thicker than the other stain.
