Several weeks ago, we had a halogen desk lamp accidentally lay on top of an IKEA bed (headboard) and burnt a spot about the size of two quarters. The bed is less than 2-years old and I was hoping for some suggestions to repair the spot. I thought about wood filler, but wanted to know if there were any better options before I gave it a go. Thanks!

| two options fill with wood filler, and do some graining to make it match; or remove the veneer, and replace with a new piece. |

| thanks! I've also heard of some stuff called grain filler. Would the wood filler be better? |
|
| grain filler would be used to fill the pores in the wood (i,e. Mahogany), which would give you a smooth glass finish. |
