William on Aug 26, 2016Rub the area with an oily furniture polish, mayonnaise, or petroleum jelly. The goal is to displace the water mark with the oil. ******************************************************************************************* Put a little white toothpaste on a wet cloth and rub the stain gently until the spot disappears. Toothpaste contains marble powder, a mild abrasive that will help get rid of the stain. ******************************************************************************************* If the stain is still there, mix equal amounts of baking soda and toothpaste together to make a slightly stronger, yet still mild, abrasive and rub that mixture on the stain.Helpful Reply

Linda on Aug 26, 2016The toothpaste is not the gel type. Get the white paste toothpaste. Rub the stain with a soft cloth until it disappears.Helpful Reply

V Nichols on Aug 26, 2016One part apple cider vinegar, 2 parts vegetable oil. Rub it in, let it sit for an hour, then rub some more in and let sit. That should get rid of the stain. Works greatHelpful Reply

Drbev on Aug 26, 2016The toothpaste trick is my standard answer. It's the finest abrasive you can get. After that if there is a difference in color in the wood use cigarette ashes mixed with olive oil (paste) and keep rubbing until you get the color match you want.Helpful Reply
