Regular dusting and polishing, careful wax or polish use, and immediate cleaning of excess buildup help prevent dull surfaces. Environmental factors like heat moisture and damp rooms accelerate aging and scratches. For light scratches use matching compounds or shellac, or turpentine for minor marks. Large damaged areas require careful varnish removal, gradual recoat, and possible refinishing.
