What is the best way to get rid of white rings or watermarks on my wood furniture?
To repair watermarks, the moisture must be released by carefully sanding the finish film back below the damaged area. The key to this repair is to stop short of cutting completely through the finish film and exposing the wood underneath. Using any one of the following materials, apply the material onto a dampened cotton cloth, not directly onto the finish film. Rub the affected area gently in the direction of the grain. Then dry and apply furniture wax to another clean cloth and buff. SUITABLE MATERIALS FOR WATER MARK REPAIR: • Baking soda • Creamy white appliance polish • Ammonia (non-soapy, not the detergent type) • Boiled linseed oil mixed with either pumice or rotten stone.
