How do you remove white rings left by a glass of water on a wood table?

Answer 1

Furniture White Ring Remover.
Permanently removes white rings, heat marks and water stains from
varnish, lacquer, and shellac without removing the finish. It also
removes felt pen marks and graffiti. Removes minor surface
scratches. Also cleans brass and copper.

Made by Jasco Costs about $4 US.

Answer 2

If the finish has actually been damaged you can buy a finish rub that I've only seen at Home Depot that will spare you from local sanding and blending: it's called restore-a-finish, and you match it to your wood. It rubs right in with a rag. Our house is a 100 year-old arts and crafts, and we were going to have to sand and finish for years -- but this stuff just rubs on and hides all of the damage. You can never tell it's been used.

Answer 3

First of all, next time use a coaster. They are available at the dollar store. I agree pledge and Murphys should remove it. Don't use silver cleaner on wood.

Answer 4

Cigarette ash mixed into a paste with olive oil, leave on mark over night and polish off in the morning. Don't know why it works but it does.

Answer 5

Many years ago, my brother used believe it or not - cigarette ashes. He did it on an antique cherrywood coffee table that I have. He just rubbed it in and wiped it off.
