Surprisingly 3 WORKED, 4 FAILED! Here's a look at all 7 tests, with tips to help you get rid of heat stains on wood.

method 1: A Hair Dryer

[{"selector":"#anim-974c8ce6-bb27-41b8-a98b-367d1784c256","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e243b921-b9a8-4851-a6f0-0a4bf8cbd5c8","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -100.0777%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Sometimes a blow dryer can remove heat stains. Before trying, be sure to follow the safety tips to check the finish on the table and avoid overheating the area. Find Out More

method 2: Using an iron

[{"selector":"#anim-66703a41-b0de-4aca-94b3-7dcb90bf03b7","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-bede0911-65be-4d8f-b56c-b1cf9b7a7d93","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-90deg) translate3d(0px, -93.41469%, 0) rotate(90deg)","rotate(-90deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(90deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Strangely, a hot iron can be great for removing heat stains too. But, again, it is very important to follow the safety tips to avoid causing more damage. You can find all of these tips in the link below! Details

method 3: steam iron

[{"selector":"#anim-a510e3cd-acc1-4b8a-8e50-e6c8c31f541b","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] When a hot iron doesn't work, using the steam setting might. However, don't try this on tables with a "soft top coat". Click For More

method 4: baking soda

[{"selector":"#anim-06f5486b-cffb-4513-a55a-03e420fa93a9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] While some people say they can remove heat stains with Baking Soda, I couldn't get this hack to work on my finish, but it's a simple trick if you have the right table for it!

method 5: toothpaste and baking soda

[{"selector":"#anim-8f95ae10-80c4-42f8-a33d-3bdca71e730a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ed7f435b-2228-4b28-9b0d-ea8d2c24d574","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -100.0777%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Adding toothpaste to the baking soda paste worked much better. Getting the mix and time right seems to be the key with this one. Click For 2 More Ways
