The denatured alcohol alone can be used to "reconstitute" the shellac and remove the ring. Shellac is the most forgiving of finishes. If the piece has other blemishes, adding a new layer of shellac softens and blends with the original…

Thank you Basswood & Craig! Yes, I believe that the finish is shellac. So, if I use the denatured alcohol to remove the ring, I need to apply shellac when finished? If I use the Briwax and steel wool, will it work with a shellac finish? Thank…

Antique Sideboard

We recently hosted a tea party at our museum and someone set a teapot on an antique sideboard (they took "precautions" by placing a terrycloth towel underneath, however, the heat and moisture resulted in a white ring where the teapot was placed). I do not want to refinish the piece but would like to know if anyone has any tips for removing the ring? Thank you, Deborah
