Please help me with how to remove the stain without dammage to the finish..Thank you

Answer 1

Try gently scrubbing with a little baking soda on a damp wash cloth then try Murphy Oil Soap. If this works (or doesnt) you can protect the wood then by using Old English Oil on all the wood. This will protect it from stains. You can do this ever so often.

Answer 2

You will not be able to remove it without damage,sorry but if you use a product called oops or Goff off it will take off the stain with minimal damage.You can find it a paint stores or wall-mart.

Answer 3

I would try an S O S pad it is like the finest of sandpaper with a soap in it very lightly with the grain

Answer 4

Try using white toothpaste and a soft cloth or toothbrush (rub gently in the direction of the grain).

Answer 5

OIL OF CLOVES - you get it at a chemist or some supermarkets. Its actually for your tooth, however it will do the job. Promise

Answer 6

try cigarette ash, rub it with a damp cloth
also works for marks left by something hot being put on wood
