How to remove water stains from a wood table...

Here's a tip you can use either in your own home or share with a client. 

We've all seen those pesk water stains on a wooden table.   Most the time they're left behind by a careless beverage or a potted plant. Either way,  the stains look bad.

But there's hope!   Get yourself an iron, vinegar, paper towels and just a touch of vegetable oil.

#1.  On a paper towel put just a touch of vinegar and the vegetable oil.
#2.  Rub it into the water stain itself.
#3.  Put 3 paper-towels over the stain.
#4.  Iron the stain, with the paper-towels under the iron, with steam.
#5.  Do it a few times till you get the results you want.


Just don't leave the iron on too long and don't go crazy with the vinegar and oil and you'll be fine.  It's a nice tip that really does work.  Once the rings are removed, apply furniture polish to prevent any further damage to the wood and to protect the furniture.
