Cat scratched up door frame repair.

Fill up the scratches with commercially available wood filler. Put a small amount of the gel stain on a rag then dab a little on a dry brush. 2 set a scratching post within two feet of one of the doors where you applied. You may have to leave the door half open until the varnish finishes drying to avoid staining the door jamb.

If your cat has caused a larger area of damage you will need first to strengthen the area using a leather binder then fix the scratches using a leather repair kit and finally restore the color using a leather colorant kit. Spray a natural cat deterrent spray on the lower four feet of each door frame you need to protect against scratching. Drag the brush lightly along one edge and quickly wipe it dry to see how the color looks. The binder helps to strengthen the area that was damaged the repair kit helps cover the scratch marks and the colorant restores the full luster of your couch.

Once you have finished sanding wipe the area with a damp rag to remove sanding dust. You can either replace the casing on that side of the door frame or sand and fill it and sand again. Sand the repaired area with 220 grit sandpaper once the putty has dried. Looks like your cat has been very busy.

I d say it would be easier on your wallet and effort to simply repair the scratches. They are pretty deep gauges and about three feet from the floor. First i would recommend to use a sanding sponge or fine steel wool to remove any gouges caused by the scratches. I have cat claw damage to various items in my apartment but the ones i really want to focus on are the claw marks on the moldings around the doors into my bathroom and bedroom.

Sand it smooth and even like the scratches never existed. Even if the cats scratched the door repeatedly there s very little chance that it would be damaged beyond repair. Once the filler has dried up lightly sand the area and wipe away all the dust. You have a couple options to tackle that door frame restoration project.

I would try this approach first and if it does not work well or to your liking then go the replacement route.
