Remove Water Stains From Wood

Get those white marks — caused by hot cups or sweating glasses — off your coffee table or other wooden furniture by making a paste of 1 tablespoon baking soda and 1 teaspoon water. Gently rub the spot in a circular motion until it disappears. Remember not to use too much water.

Petroleum Jelly

STEVE CALCOTT VIA FLICKR

Your most recent party left lots of watermark rings on your wood furniture. To make them disappear, apply petroleum jelly and let it sit overnight. In the morning, wipe the watermark away with the jelly.

Salt

Salt

Make watermarks left from glasses or bottles disappear by mixing 1 teaspoon salt with a few drops of water to form a paste. Gently rub the paste onto the ring with a soft cloth or sponge and work it over the spot until it’s gone. Restore the luster of your wood with furniture polish.

Toothpaste

Toothpaste

You leave coasters around. But some people just won’t use them. To get rid of those telltale watermark rings left by sweating beverages, gently rub some non-gel toothpaste on the wood with a soft cloth. Then wipe it off with a damp cloth and let it dry before applying furniture polish. For even stronger cleaning power, mix equal parts white toothpaste and baking soda. Rub the paste parallel to the wood grain, wipe it off, and then polish with lemon oil.

Vinegar

To remove white rings left by wet glasses on wood furniture, mix equal parts vinegar and olive oil and apply it with a soft cloth while moving with the wood grain. Use another clean, soft cloth to shine it up. To get white water rings off leather furniture, dab them with a sponge soaked in full-strength white vinegar.

Car Wax

Someone forgot to use a coaster and now there’s an ugly white ring on the dining room table. When regular furniture polish doesn’t work, try using a dab of car wax. Trace the ring with your finger to apply the wax. Let it dry and buff with a soft cloth.

Remove Water Stains From Car Seats

Water stains on car seats, either cloth or leather, are not a big deal; you can easily clean them at home 

without professional care. You can take care of fairly small stains, but if you have extensive water damage to the interior of your car, you may need to hire a professional.

Before You Start

You will need to have a few things ready before you get started on the cleaning process. Some of the items are probably already sitting around in a cupboard, and some you may have to buy. You won't need to spend a lot of money to clean your car seats at home.

Step 1: Clean the seats.

Give the seat a thorough vacuuming, because even tiny bits of dirt will start to show up when you apply the cleaning product -- you don't want to make the stain worse. If you have a hard water or saltwater stain, rub a teaspoon-sized amount of vinegar into the stain with a dull rag or microfiber cloth and let it sit for several minutes before applying the shampoo. The vinegar will help to dissolve any salt or minerals that may otherwise be left behind after you remove the stain.

Step 2: Apply the shampoo.

Apply it to the whole seat. If you try to clean only the stain, it may become even more noticeable.

Step 3: Work it in.

Gently brush the shampoo into the seat, taking care not to damage it.

Step 4: Air it out.

Remove the shampoo with a towel and allow the car to air out.

Leather Seats

Leather is very resilient, if it's real leather, and you may find that it simply dries on its own after a while and does not leave a stain. If it has been some time, though, and you know the stain isn't going away by itself, take action. Vinegar is safe to use on leather for cleaning hard water stains.

Step 1: Gather your supplies.

Get a clean bowl of room-temperature water and a clean cloth.

Step 2: Dampen your rag.

Soak the cloth, then wring out most of the water. You want it damp, not wet.

Step 3: Rub the stain.

Start rubbing outward from the stain to the seams of the seat on both sides, covering the entire area, so that you don't make the stain more noticeable.

Step 4: Dry the seat.

Wipe the cleaned area with a dry cloth, allow it time to dry naturally, and then use leather conditioner to finish the job.
