I am almost ready to begin painting my first home (!) and need some help patching some wood trim that got damaged during the move. This trim is painted with glossy paint and sits on a corner. There are several gouges in the wood, in some cases exposing bare wood. I'd like to find a product to use to build up the dented wood before painting. I'm thinking maybe a wood putty? But will it adhere to painted wood? I don't think spackle will be solid enough to fill the gouges, but it might work as a final covering. I am pretty new at all this and would appreciate any help or ideas anyone has!
