It is possible to use table mats and table cloths to protect the wood surfaces of tables. However, it is still necessary to be careful with beverages that may leak and penetrate through the cloth and thereby reach the wood surface. Water and liquids in general are the worst enemy to wood tables.

Apply wood finish A dry oil finish coat should also be applied as often as once every two years if desired to protect against moisture damage caused by spills (which will happen). If any cracks appear from this type of wear and tear, they can easily be touched up with the dry oils when reapplied at least annually.

Cover with a Tablecloth: Not only will it help protect it from scratches and spills, but it will also add a bit of style to your table.
