The Steam Iron Method

• 1). Add water to the steam iron. Plug in the iron near the project area and set it to a medium heat level. Allow the iron to heat up for a few minutes.
  
  
• 2). Place a clean, dry towel over the table's stain. Iron the towel with a slow, continual motion, using steam. Lift the towel frequently to check the stain.
  
  
• 3). Remove the towel once the stain has been removed. Dry the table with a clean, dry towel. Repeat steps 1 through 3 or continue to Section 2 if the stain has not been removed.
  
  

Techniques for Household Pastes, Liquids and Gels

• 1). Squeeze a little non-gel toothpaste onto the stained area. Rub the toothpaste into the finish with a soft cloth. Continue rubbing for a while. Wipe the area clean with a dry, clean cloth. Continue this process with another step if this one didn't remove the spot. Optionally, repeat this method by mixing baking soda 50-50 with the toothpaste first.
  
  
• 2). Mix 1 tbsp. of salt and just enough olive oil to create a paste. Spoon this onto the stain. Rub this paste into the stain and allow to set for up to one hour. Wipe the area clean with a dry, clean towel or soft cloth. Complete the process with another step if this one didn't remove the stain.
  
  
• 3). Apply a small amount of mayonnaise to the table stain. Rub it in. Allow to set for an hour or so. Wipe off with a clean, damp cloth, then dry with a dry towel. Alternatively, try the same technique with petroleum jelly.
