Step 1:
I got a dish towel and folded it in half and placed it over the stain
I filled my iron with water and set it to cotton mode and turned on the steam setting
I was given a beautiful solid wood side-board from my mom when she sold her house. I loved everything about it, everything except the big water stain in the top corner! It had been caused by a cold drink on a hot day. And the stain had been there for as long as I can remember.
I didn’t want to paint it because I really loved the chestnut finish. And the rest was in perfect condition. And I don’t have much
Step 1:
I got a dish towel and folded it in half and placed it over the stain
I filled my iron with water and set it to cotton mode and turned on the steam setting
I ironed over the towel, checking after every few strokes, until the stain completely disappeared!!
This technique also works on new stains. This is a heat mark I put on my oak table last week from a hot bowl of soup. Did the exact same technique with exact same results. Yeah!!! :)

Have a question about this project?
What is a tea towel
It's a dish towel.
Please help! I used a gel toothpaste to get rid of two stains, and it took the cherry finish off. What to do?
I've never used toothpaste. Are you sure the finish came off...or did it just turn cloudy white over top of the finish? Did you see red on your cloth?
Oh my God!!! That is amazing! I wonder if it would work on my burnerless stove or counters?!
