ILL-TREATED FURNITURE NEEDS IRONING
To remove dents in furniture that has been roughly treated, take a large piece of strong brown paper and fold it over into about six thicknesses. Then soak it thoroughly in hot water. At the same time heat an iron. Place the wet paper over the dent to be treated and press it with a hot iron until the paper is almost dry. Continue the treatment very carefully and gently until the dents are improved. (Remember that on no account must the wood get too hot, as excessive heat will damage the surface.
