From the desk and experience of my mom:

Use this mixture to cover scratches and renew the finish of antique pieces without the hassle of refinishing.
Step-by-Step
1.) Mix equal parts boiled linseed oil, white vinegar and mineral spirits in a glass jar.
2.) Apply the mixture to the finish using 0000 grade steel wool. Scrub in small circles to re-spread the finish over the scratched areas and lift paint. Allow to dry.

3.) Buff the finish using a soft, lint free, cotton cloth. (An old t-shirt works well.)
