Turns out shoe polish can shine up more than your kicks. Real Simple magazine says it can take nicks and gouges out of wooden furniture as well:

Apply a pea-size dot of wax shoe polish, then use a soft cotton cloth to buff it in, as you would on shoes.
You can also use Pledge furniture wax to shine shoes in a pinch, or even vegetable oil.
