Hi,
Help please. Best repair to a white whisky stain on a pine top? The table was shop bought, is not a natural finish so has been stained a darkish colour (burnt oak???) and I imagine some finish on that. Anyway there is a whisky stain, whiteish, which wasn't noticed for about twenty hours or so. I've looked in Neil's book - A Polishers Handbook - but couldn't see any solution (pun?) other than "If you don't know ask on the Forum" so here I am.
Thanks,
Bob H.
p.s. I'm in trouble with someone so need help. And I don't even like the stuff, had it to be sociable.

:UCan't help with the stain, other than you might have to start again. But can I interest you in some coasters? :D

Thanks, coasters I have which I think may be why I have this problem, it wobbled!

Hi,
For information. All is corrected.
On a shelf in the garage I found an old coffee jar on which I'd written "Bob's Furniture Cleaner" - a recipe I'd found somewhere so not my own. A quick rub over with steel wool and the mixture and all was restored, stain gone. No sign of the stain this morning but I wiped it over again, just a clothe and the mixture and the Boss Lady is well pleased (so am I!).
Thread closed.

Hi,
Sorry but it wasn't an event I was proud of so no "stain" picture but can post a picture when I get back home. The happening was a couple of days before leaving for UK.
