I've used a product called a "Zenith Almond Stick" on a wooden antique
radio I have.  It was truly amazing, and completely (even under fairly
close examination) hid a couple deep scratches for months before
requiring re-application.  The particular stick I have is probably from
the 1940s-50s, but I mention it because I found last summer that it is
_still_ being made.

My impression is that it's got (what else) almond oil in it, but I could
be wrong, it may be purely petroleum or paraffin based, but it works
great.  It's a white stick that comes in a tubular yellow/black/red metal
can.  You rub it over the scratches, then polish normally.
