It will clean up any grimy greasy gummy mess and also works especially well on coffee stains and mustard stains. I once lived in a house with white laminate counter tops. Nothing else took the stains off except clorox clean up. It's also great for stainless steel sinks. Spray inside, scrub with scrubber sponge and rinse. I know, I sound like an advertisement.
I would try a few products. Smokers leave an oily film. which can be removed with patient cleaning. it could be that the furniture polish is filthy not the actual finish.
Age, dryness, previous treatments, and wearing will affect your decision. If the table is old, the wood may be dried out. Excessive water may cause it to swell.
I would try a diluted degreasing detergent on an out of sight location. Dutch Glow has a few restoration products. Your other solution would be to sand and repaint. Only if your table has a few dings and you want to bring back the wood grain would I strip it. You may want to restore as a gaming table (backgammon, checkers, chess) mosaics, tiles, may be another direction.
Note: Vinegar s not recommended if it has polyurethane on it as vinegar effect plastic and aluminum.
Otherwise, take it to a pro. they can get it done quickly.

What type of substance is coating the table?
As long as the table isn't metal then try Clorox clean up and a scrubber sponge.
Is it painted? Just wash it. Dawn and a magic eraser should do the trick.

Thank you for all the ideas. I'll get working!
