Welcome to the forum , emmamadison01 .
The answer(s) to your question really have to do with the nature of the damage you wish to repair .
Scratches to finish-coats are certainly less work than scratches that actually get down to the wood .... also in this , it does somewhat matter if the table is solid wood , or veneer .
Could you be more descriptive , perhaps with an image or two , about the kind of damage you're speaking of ?
