I nicked the side of my LSi15
Options
While I was moving my speaker I accidentally nicked the wood on the speaker. Can I sand it down and re-stain it? If so why grit should I use?
Thanks.
Thanks.

How big is the "nick"? If it is smaller than 1/4" diameter then I would simply look for a matching brown colored marker to the nick. They make them specifically for repairing nicks in wood stains. You will never really notice it.
Repairing by sanding is a lot of work to get it just right. -
OUCH !
try blending different furniture wax fillers / pencil to the right color
to match -
The wood covering is a veneer. (Polk learned with the large SDA's that solid wood cracks as it dries out) I would not recommend sanding - wax filler /pencil would be your best bet.

Shoe polish works real good for hiding blemishes.
BenPlease. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.

That is exactly what I did to cover my small nick. I wanted to cry when I noticed it, but after I fixed it I can hardly find it when looking for it, and its virtually invisible to others.Do you hear that buzzing noise?
