If I'm not mistaken you can crack a walnut and rub it on the spot. The oil in the nut helps to remove the mark!

Brilliant, the walnut worked on light wood, non glossy table, thanks.

Formby's product line of furniture refinishing products sells a product called,"White Ring Remover". That is sold in any paint department that carries the Formby's product line.

You can also use some Vaseline Petroleum Jelly and ashes from a cigarette or wood ashes from a fireplace. The ashes are a very,very fine abraisive and the petroleum is a wood conditioner. Put some over the ring, using your finger rub well into the ring. Let set about fifteen mins. then wipe off.
Either one will take the ring out .

Depends on what the fabric type is on your furniture.

Try a dab of Mayo, rub in with a soft cloth and buff with a dry cloth. It did a great job on my old sewing machine. GG Vi

This is what I just did...

Clean dry polishing cloth folded once laid over water mark, steam iron on full heat laid onto polishing cloth allowing steam to penetrate only for a couple of seconds at a time, after only a few passes the heat and steam make the water mark disappear completely, I was amazed at how effective it was I even took before and after pictures to show other people!

I combined a few tips to fix my problem. Had a 2" white spot on our dark wood cabinet - probably from a tea cup so it was combo heat & water mark. Nothing was getting it out... until...

  • Applied some mayo for a few hours and rubbed
  • (This helped a bit)
  • Took a towel, folded it in half (was really weary of using iron) and gave a shot of steam for 1 second
  • Removed the towel and stain literally disappeared

Can't even see where the original stain was. Thanks so much for this amazing tip - saved our beloved furniture.
