    Straighten the nails and then lightly hammer them out from the under side. Apply Liquid Nails down under board and then put back in place. You should be able to hammer the finish nails back in. If not, buy some more and hammer them in with a nail setter (about $6). Fill holes with color matching wood putty.

    Best of luck!

    • They are just finish nails, you will never be able to back them out, we aren't talking about flooring cleats hereterry_cloth
