A:  Hi there, Homax® Furniture White Ring Remover Cloth makes heat and watermarks disappear without stripping or harming the finish of wood furniture. Specially treated white ring remover cloth helps restore furniture without expensive refinishing. It also removes minor scratches, magic markers and pens from wood finishes, and removes tarnish and oxidization from copper and brass. Contains one (1) treated cloth in a resealable bag.

A:  Do not have the pkg anymore. All I can say is it worked for me.

A:  We would not recommend it for this use. Please call us at 1-800-441-9695 for more information.

A:  It depends on what you mean by a "sealed top"; if there are coats of varnish, or lacquer, or shellac on the top. the answer is probably. If by "sealed" you mean plastic, the answer is clearly no. You can remove any finish with the proper technique, but you should try the cloth on an inconspicuous place before trying the damaged area.

A:  I have used this product on my dining room table to remove white spots on the finish. I have not used the product on unsealed surfaces. Seems to me you have nothing to lose by trying the product since it sounds like you will have to sand and re-stain if it doesn't work anyway. Good luck.

A:  You've got too many problems for a single fix. The best thing to do is strip all the old finish off, and start again. Try using a paint stripper (make sure you wear gloves and a respirator); if that doesn't work, sand all the old finish off, and then refinish the frame to your specific needs.

A:  Hi Gmiller, as the community answer replied, it would be beneficial to try the cloth. If it removes too much, the ideal process would be to sand and re-stain either way. If you have any further questions as you proceed with your project, give us a call at 1-800-729-9029 between 8am-5pm ET.

A:  This product will probably help and I haven’t ever had it affect the stain on wood while using it. It’s just a tackcloth type rag with some kind of chemical(s) on it. Clean the areas first to keep the rag from getting dirty and help it last longer then just put on a glove and rub it on the affected area. It’s definitely worth a try, especially for how cheap it is!

A:  It might work for the cup ring but I would try Old English Cherry scratch cover first. You might have to special order it as it's not as easy to find as the ones for dark or light wood
