Removing Hot Spot From Wood Table

Wood tables’ durability and practicality make the furniture prevalent in homes. Although long-lasting, wood tables may experience blemishes. Hot spots, for example, form when hot items affect the wood’s surface and produce white marks on tables. Hot pizza boxes, cookware and irons are typically responsible for hot spots on wood tables. The whiter these spots, the more severely damaged wood tables are. Fortunately, hot spots are usually removable and wood tables can be restored.
