Hey Susan, you can try to use our Wood Stain Repair tutorial to make the Bondo look like the whitewashed wood.

Sharlee,
I acquired a nice dresser that had some chips out of the top. We used bondo which worked great, but now I want to leave the top natural (we sanded finish off) with just a whitewash but worry that the spot where bondo was patched is going to stick out like a sore thumb. Any advice you can give me will be appreciated!

I have. It will not stain like the wood does, so you can use this wood stain repair trick to make it blend with the stain around it.

Yes, for best results prime the Kwikwood and all of the furniture to get an even finish.

for small repairs, or thin repairs, Bondo is better because it’s thinner and is easier to get into the crack.

For peeling veneer, I prefer to use Bondo, but if it’s only a small area, the KwikWood works great!
Then you can use gel stain to stain it back to the original wood color.
