Ingredients

2-3 tablespoons mayonnaise

1 or 2 paper towels

6 hours or more needed to let stain be naturally removed... see below

Directions

Locate ring from leaving your favorite ice tea or other cold drink that has now left a water mark on your Grandmother's passed down antique table top.

Grab full fat mayonnaise (miracle whip ok too here folks)

Spread 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise covering water ring.

Gently place paper towel over water ring and slabbed on mayo- it's more to remind you that the mayonnaise is there than anything else while keeping the area moist.

We used to leave it over night, but by 6 hours, wipe clean and voila, water ring is removed.

Why does this work??? The fat in the mayonnaise gently gets reabsorbed into the water ring mark leaving you and your favorite antique table top looking fantastic...

This is great in the summer when people forget to use coasters under their iced drinks...

I tried your recipe to remove a ring the same day it appeared on my fabulous table - and guess what?! It made it worse. Perhaps the recipe only works on certain types of wood?

Maybe your table is not actually stained and has bee's wax... but in fact is polyurethaned. Still with the exception of not using any full fat mayo - I don't see why this didn't work for you. I grew up with a granny owning an antique business and I learned this trick from her. It has ALWAYS worked for me and on my tables.
