A Remedy for Removing Water Marks on a Table

Toothpaste Remedy

• 1

  Squirt a small amount of white toothpaste on the water mark. A pea-sized amount is adequate for most of these spots.

• 2

  Rub the toothpaste into the mark on the table by using a soft, damp cleaning cloth. Use a circular motion to do this.

• 3

  Check the water mark after a couple of minutes to see if it is gone. If not, add more toothpaste if necessary, and continue rubbing.

• 4

  Wipe away the toothpaste residue with a clean section of the damp cloth.

Ammonia Remedy

• 5

  Mix a solution with the ammonia and 1/4 cup of water in a medium bowl.

• 6

  Wet a cleaning cloth in the solution, and wring it out.

• 7

  Clean the water mark with the damp cleaning cloth by using a circular motion. Do this lightly to prevent removing the finish.

• 8

  Look at the water mark after a couple of minutes to see if it is gone. If not, continue cleaning it.

• 9

  Rinse the table with a damp cleaning cloth once the water mark disappears.
