Hairdryer or mayo

Comments

@antispasmodic I tried mayo last night and no difference. Left it on for an hour x

Answer 2

Put a tea towel on it and iron it pressing down on it

Answer 3

We had a bad one on our table from a pizza box. Hand towel with a iron took it completely out.  

Answer 4

It's moisture from condensation which gets trapped in the finish, and needs drawing out. Medium heat iron (with steam off) on a teatowel. Move the iron slowly over the stain making sure the table doesn't get too hot or it will cause more moisture. It does take a while so please be patient. Other methods like baking soda, mayonnaise, toothpaste etc do not work x

Answer 5

Rub a walnut over it, the oil helps remove stain. It might take a while, but will improve over time. x

Answer 6

Put a t towel over the mark then iron over the t towel. It draws the moisture out. It really does work. It got a mark from a bowl of water off my table.  

Answer 7

I want to try the iron technique but it's scary adding more heat to it, worried ill do it wrong . I might be brave and have a go later  x

Answer 8
