: Oh yeah btw, standard and even poly varnishes are relatively easy to fix once
: damaged (scratched), the two part ones are very difficult if not
: impossible to fix if damaged.

: Bill H.

Just put a dab of varnish on the dings, from the paddle strikes, and then immediately wipe it off with a clean rag. It will not eliminate the ding but it will make it match the deck varnish color again. You will find the urge to re-varnish the deck will be greatly reduced.
