She would make a paste from used cigarette ashes and fresh water. She would rub the paste in a circular motion on the water mark and it would disappear! Try it, it works. Good luck. ddkmk1 RE: Large Water Spot on a Maple Coffee Table Post by Patrink (2) | (05/06/2007) Contact Ashes in mayonnaise, rub in well. May have to repeat, but it works, believe it or not.

It may take 2 or 3 days, maybe longer but the spot will disappear. I've even done this on old spots and it still went back to the original finish.
