Water Stain on Wood Table

RE: Water Stain on Wood Table Post By lp (Guest Post) (08/04/2008) WOW! Just did the paper towel/iron trick and it worked in about 30 seconds. There were 3 water stains on a maple desk and they are GONE. Thanks for the tip!

It's always had a mark on it so I've not really taken care of it and it has gotten really bad. An hour with an iron and some paper towel and it's like brand new. Some really bad rings I never thought would totally come out. I'm sharing this with everyone.

It got rid of the water mark BUT left small circular white marks either from the bottom of the iron or the markings on the paper towel. Now it looks worse Report Spam or Abuse RE: Water Stain on Wood Table Post By Neal (Guest Post) (04/17/2008) I tried the paper towel trick on a dark wood desk and it really works. Warm iron and folded paper towel. Report Spam or Abuse white stain on table top Post By Dianne (Guest Post) (04/04/2008) I have a dining room table. Dark finish. I left a hot pizza box on it and can't remove the white spot where the hot box was. Is there anything I can use to remove it?

The acid in the orange juice releases the moisture trapped under the finish.

Polish with a soft cloth. This has worked for me a couple of times. By the way..I think the cat picture must've been placed on the wrong page. Can't remove water stains with a cat. lol Report Spam or Abuse RE: Water Stain on Wood Table Post By (Guest Post) (01/04/2006) I JUST TRIED THE IRON AND PAPER TOWEL AND IT TOOK A STAIN THE SIZE OF VERTOMT OFF A BEAUTFUL ANTIQUE REPLICA 72 INCH TABLE THANKS Report Spam or Abuse RE: Water Stain on Wood Table Post by CindayB (1) | (11/26/2005) Contact Hi, I tried the mayonaise and ash on a watermark, but it didn't work.

What you need to do is remover all the layers and the water mark will dissapear. Spray on polish is bad for furniture and shouldnt be used! so once you have remover the layers all you should do is dust over the wood with a cloth to keep the dirt off. To remove the layers you can use a professional product, such as http://www.furnitureclinic.co.uk/Heritage_Wood.htm (the easiest way, or you can try some of the methods above but they may take a bit longer to work) Report Spam or Abuse RE: Water Stain on Wood Table Post By Emily (Guest Post) (11/04/2005) I have used JASCO Furniture White Ring Remover. It comes in a small white container with a cloth in side. All you have to do is take the rag and rub it with the grain of the wood until white rings, marks and minor scratches in finish disappear. It really works! Report Spam or Abuse RE: Water Stain on Wood Table Post By siris (Guest Post) (10/31/2005) Hope you know a smoker. Cigarette ashes and spit. Rub it in with your finger, leave a few minutes and wipe.

I think she might have let the mayo sit on there before she did that then wiped it off before she did the other.

Equal amount of vinegar with olive oil work it in with finger tips and let sit for a couple of hours then wipe off with a soft cloth and WALLA.
