Instruments sometimes get nicks or scratches that can be touched up. The upper right rib is also prone to varnish wear. Generally, the larger the area the more time it takes to match and touch-up the varnish.

Violin Repair: It is somewhat difficult to give price estimates for varnish touch up without seeing the instrument.

A violin where the music stand crashed into the top. It created a dent and knocked the varnish off.

• I steamed the gash/dent out as much as possible.
• Then filled the remainer with a clear
• Next step was to match the base coat color
• Finish off with matching the varnish color
• Finally Polish
